Trump admin is preparing a tiered system for its tariffs on steel and aluminum products.
- US will maintain 50% tariffs on a large number of derivative products
- Many other products will be tariffed at a lower 25% rate, while some products will fall below that duty level
- And if an item’s total steel or aluminum content drops below 15% of the product, the tariff rate will fall to zero
