What would be an estimate import tax to import surgical style face
masks from Cina to the US for wholesale sales?

Dear josephus49,

The products you refer to are covered by the U.S. Harmonized Tariff

63079060.--Surgical drapes of fabric formed on a base of paper or
covered or lined with paper

63079068.--Surgical drapes of spunlaced or bonded fiber fabric
disposable surgical drapes of man-made fibers

63079072.--Surgical drapes, nesoi, not spunlaced or bonded fiber fabric

Products belonging to HTS categories 63079060 and 63079068 are not
subject to import duties when imported from countries that enjoy
Normal Trade Relations (NTR) status with the United States. This
currently applies to China.

Products imported from NTR countries belonging to HTS category
63079072 are subject to a 4.5% MFN Text Rate.
Duty calculation:	(Ad Valorem Rate) times (Value).
Ad Valorem (percent of value) component: 4.5%

I hope this answers your question.
