At CLP Systems, a Division of Vulcan Steel Products and Subsidiary of Steel Dynamics, Inc, we are committed to delivering high-quality, 100% domestic threaded rod to our customers. The recent changes to U.S. trade policy reinforce the importance of American manufacturing and fair competition in the marketplace. The Trump Administration just released its initial derivative products expansion on the Section 232 tariffs, and it includes threaded rod as a derivative product of steel wire rod. You can review the full details of the proclamation here.
Why This Is Good News for Our Industry
For too long, low-cost and sometimes substandard threaded rod has been imported into our country, undercutting quality American-made products. With this new 25% tariff in place, businesses that have relied on imported threaded rod will now need to consider higher-quality domestic alternatives. This ensures a more level playing field and prioritizes safety and performance in construction and manufacturing applications.
