Threaded rod harmonized system code

Product Overview A Threaded Rod, falling under the HS Code 7318, is a fastening bar or rod that is threaded along the entire length. These are typically constructed from various grades of steel, brass, or stainless steel, offering a range of tensile strengths and corrosion resistance levels. The product's key characteristics include its diameter, thread pitch, length, and material composition. There are multiple subcategories in the HS Code 7318, specifically 731815 (Screws and bolts) and 731819 (Other threaded articles), under which Threaded Rods are classified. Threaded Rods are versatile tools used extensively in food service, retail, and processing industries for suspending electrical wiring and plumbing systems, mounting structures, and performing general maintenance tasks. They offer a significant value proposition due to their durability, versatility, and ease of use, making them a competitive choice in various industrial applications. HS Code Classification & Trade Specifications The Threaded Rod is classified under the HS Code 7318. The hierarchical breakdown of this code is Chapter 73 (Articles of Iron or Steel), Heading 18 (Screws, bolts, nuts, coach screws, screw hooks, rivets, cotters, cotter pins, washers, and similar articles, threaded). The complete 6-digit code, 7318, further narrows down to product-specific subheadings, such as 731815 (Screws and bolts) and 731819 (Other threaded articles). This product falls under this specific code due to its primary function as a threaded fastener made from iron or steel. In terms of trade, Threaded Rods are commonly packaged in bulk, individually wrapped, or bundled, and preserved using corrosion-resistant coatings or treatments. Shipping requirements generally hinge on weight, dimensions, and destination country regulations. The product should meet international quality standards like ISO 898-1 for mechanical properties and ISO 3506 for stainless steel. Use of these standards ensures the product's reliability, durability, and performance, in line with the World Trade Organization (WTO) and customs documentation standards.

Threaded rod Chapter Note

1.- In this Chapter the expression “cast iron” applies to products obtained by casting in which iron predominates by weight over each of the other elements and which do not comply with the chemical composition of steel as defined in Note 1 (d) to Chapter 72. 2.- In this Chapter the word “wire” means hot or cold-formed products of any cross-sectional shape, of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 16 mm.
