The Tariff Problem is Real.
The Solution is Domestic.
A $100,000 order of imported steel now carries an additional $50,000 in tariffs, making your bids uncompetitive overnight. By strategically shifting your procurement to qualified domestic (U.S.) steel producers, this entire fee can be legally eliminated. We are experts in navigating the domestic market to deliver you a more profitable and predictable supply chain.

Frequently Asked Questions About Avoiding Steel Tariffs
What are the Section 232 steel tariffs?
The Section 232 tariffs are a 50% tax imposed by the U.S. government on most steel imported from foreign countries. Our service is designed to help you legally avoid this tax by sourcing your steel exclusively from domestic (U.S.) suppliers, who are the only producers exempt from this tariff.
Are Canada and Mexico exempt from the 50% steel tariff?
No. As of recent U.S. trade policy updates, steel imported from Canada and Mexico is now subject to the same 50% Section 232 tariff as steel from other countries. The previous exemptions have been revoked. The only way to legally avoid the tariff is to source your steel from producers within the United States.
How can you guarantee you'll find a better price than importing?
While we cannot guarantee a lower price in every single instance, our deep network and focus on domestic suppliers give us a significant advantage. The 50% tariff on imported steel provides a substantial margin for us to find a domestic alternative that lands at a lower final cost to you. If we can't save you money on our quote analysis, you don't pay.
What types of steel can you source?
We can source a wide variety of metals from domestic suppliers, including but not limited to: structural steel, carbon steel plate, stainless steel sheet, aluminum extrusions, and various specialty alloys. Our network includes suppliers that cater to the specific needs of fabricators, machine shops, and large-scale industrial buyers.
Do you serve clients outside of Missouri?
Yes. While our roots and deepest network are in Missouri and the Midwest, we provide domestic steel sourcing services for companies across the United States. Our process is managed remotely and is effective regardless of your location.
