Overview
This HTS category, "Other," under HTS code 7209.17.00.60, encompasses flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel that have been cold-rolled to a width of 600 mm or more. The key characteristics defining this subcategory are that the material is not clad, plated, or coated, is presented in coils and has not undergone further processing beyond cold-rolling, and falls within a thickness range of 0.5 mm to 1 mm inclusive. Furthermore, these are specifically high-strength steel products.
Distinguishing this "Other" category from its sibling, "Annealed," is crucial. While both fall under the same parent headings for cold-rolled, high-strength steel coils of specific thickness, this category specifically excludes products that have undergone an annealing process. Annealing is a heat treatment process designed to soften metal and improve its ductility. Therefore, the "Other" classification applies to cold-rolled, high-strength steel coils within the specified thickness range that have *not* been annealed after the cold-rolling process.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this code relies solely on meeting all the preceding criteria: being cold-rolled, non-clad, non-plated, non-coated flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel in coils, of a width of 600 mm or more, with a thickness between 0.5 mm and 1 mm, and being of a high-strength steel composition, while specifically *not* having undergone any annealing treatment.
