There are 155 derivative items in chapter 73, which will face 25% tariffs; an additional dozen items will only owe duties on the steel content in them, and those are either in chapter 84 or 94.

The items in those chapters include bulldozer blades, parts of escalators and elevators, backhoe and front-loader attachments, plows, steel shelving, modular steel building units, brass lighting fixtures and other lighting fixtures.

"For purposes of implementing the requirements in this proclamation, importers of steel derivative articles shall provide to U.S. Customs and Border Patrol within the Department of Homeland Security (CBP) any information necessary to identify the steel content used in the manufacture of steel derivative articles imports, covered by this Proclamation. CBP shall implement the information requirements as soon as practicable," the notice said.

There will be public notification before the tariffs are due on the derivative items.
