7207.19.00 - Other

This HTS category, 7207.19.00, encompasses other semifinished products of iron or nonalloy steel that contain less than 0.25 percent of carbon by weight, when these products do not fit within the specifically defined rectangular cross-section categories. It serves as a residual classification for these intermediate steel forms when their cross-sectional geometry is not rectangular or square, or if it is rectangular but does not meet the dimensional criteria of sibling categories.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. Category 7207.11.00.00 specifically covers products of rectangular (including square) cross-section where the width is less than twice the thickness. Similarly, 7207.12.00 addresses other rectangular (but not square) cross-sections. Therefore, 7207.19.00 applies to semifinished steel products with less than 0.25% carbon content that have cross-sections other than those precisely defined as rectangular or square by the preceding codes.

Within this category, further distinctions are made to refine classification based on the cross-sectional shape. Subcategory 7207.19.00.30 is designated for products of circular cross section. The remaining products that do not meet the criteria for circular cross-section are classified under 7207.19.00.90, "Other," ensuring that all non-rectangular, non-square, and non-circular semifinished steel products with less than 0.25% carbon content are appropriately accounted for.
