7209.18.25.85 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, specifically 7209.18.25.85, classifies cold-rolled flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel that are at least 600 mm wide and have not undergone further processing beyond cold rolling. The defining characteristics are that they are supplied in coils, are not clad, plated, or coated, and are of a thickness less than 0.5 mm. This particular subcategory further refines the classification for products with a thickness of less than 0.361 mm, commonly referred to as "blackplate."

This "Other" designation at the 7209.18.25.85 level serves to capture those products meeting the general criteria of the parent categories that are not specifically enumerated under preceding subheadings. For instance, it is distinguished from the sibling category 7209.18.25.20 which explicitly covers "Annealed" products. Therefore, this classification is for blackplate that has *not* been annealed.

As this represents a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification decisions within this specific code will hinge on the precise thickness (less than 0.361 mm) and the absence of any annealing process, in addition to fulfilling all the requirements of the broader categories such as being cold-rolled, in coils, and not further worked or coated.
