Overview
This HTS category, 7208.26.00.60, specifically classifies "Other" flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel. These products are hot-rolled, possess a width of 600 mm or more, and are not clad, plated, or coated. Crucially, within the "Other" designation, these particular goods are supplied in coils and have undergone no further processing beyond hot-rolling and pickling. The defining physical characteristic for this subcategory is their thickness, which ranges from 3 mm or more but is less than 4.75 mm.
This classification distinguishes itself from its sibling, 7208.26.00.30, which is designated for "High-strength steel." While both fall under the broader umbrella of hot-rolled, pickled flat-rolled steel in coils within this thickness range, the "Other" category encompasses products that do not meet the specific technical or metallurgical definitions of high-strength steel. This implies that materials classified here may possess standard or lower tensile strength properties compared to their high-strength counterparts.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the precise physical attributes: being in coil form, hot-rolled and pickled, not further worked, and possessing a thickness between 3 mm and 4.75 mm, while also not qualifying as high-strength steel. Importers and exporters should carefully verify these dimensional and processing parameters to ensure accurate classification.
