7208.10.30.00 - Of a thickness of 4.75 mm or more

This HTS classification, 7208.10.30.00, specifically covers flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel that are hot-rolled, measure 600 mm or more in width, and are not clad, plated, or coated. The defining characteristic for this subcategory is that these products, when presented in coils and further worked only by hot-rolling, must have patterns in relief and possess a thickness of 4.75 mm or more. These are substantial steel products intended for various industrial applications where their thickness and embossed surface are crucial for structural integrity or specific functional requirements.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 7208.10.60.00, by the critical dimensional criterion of thickness. While both fall under hot-rolled, patterned coils of iron or non-alloy steel with a width of 600 mm or more, this classification exclusively applies to those with a thickness of 4.75 mm or greater. The sibling category covers identical products but with a thickness measuring less than 4.75 mm. This precise distinction in thickness is a primary factor in determining the correct classification and subsequent tariff treatment.

As this node is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level requires a meticulous adherence to the specified dimensions and characteristics. Examples of goods classified here might include hot-rolled steel coils with diamond or bar patterns, intended for use in construction, manufacturing of tools, or heavy machinery components, where the specified thickness is a fundamental design parameter.
