Overview
This HTS classification, 7208.10.60.00, specifically addresses hot-rolled flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel that are not clad, plated, or coated. The defining characteristic of goods within this category is their thickness, which must be less than 4.75 mm. These products are further defined by being supplied in coils and having undergone no further working beyond the hot-rolling process, crucially featuring patterns in relief.
To differentiate this category from its sibling, 7208.10.30.00, the primary distinguishing factor is the thickness. While both fall under the broader umbrella of hot-rolled flat-rolled steel in coils with patterns in relief, 7208.10.30.00 covers products with a thickness of 4.75 mm or more. Therefore, the critical point for classification into 7208.10.60.00 is the measurement of less than 4.75 mm for the thickness of the steel.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is definitive based on the specified characteristics: being hot-rolled flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel in coils, not further worked, with patterns in relief, and crucially, having a thickness under 4.75 mm. This ensures precise identification and consistent application of customs duties and regulations for these specific steel products.
