HS Code 7314.19 – Iron or steel; woven cloth, other than of stainless steel
HS code 7314.19 is the 6-digit subheading for iron or steel, woven cloth, other than of stainless steel. It is used for galvanized steel woven mesh, mild steel wire cloth, carbon steel woven screens, industrial steel filters (non-stainless) and woven steel reinforcement mesh.
What HS 7314.19 covers
This HS code covers woven cloth made from iron or steel wire, specifically excluding stainless steel varieties. These products are typically used in applications where high strength and durability are paramount, but the inherent corrosion resistance of stainless steel is not strictly required, or where corrosion protection is provided by coatings like galvanization. Common uses include general industrial screening, reinforcement in construction, agricultural fencing, and various filtration tasks in less corrosive environments. Importers include construction companies, agricultural suppliers, and manufacturers of diverse industrial goods. Exporters are generally large-scale wire mesh producers. Key trade considerations involve the type of steel (e.g., mild steel, galvanized steel), mesh size, wire gauge, and weave pattern, which determine the product's suitability for its intended purpose and its overall cost-effectiveness compared to stainless steel alternatives.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
