7210.30.00.60 - Other

This HTS category, 7210.30.00.60, encompasses flat-rolled products of iron or nonalloy steel, measuring 600 mm or more in width, that have been plated or coated with zinc through an electrolytic process. These products are distinct from those classified under 7210.30.00.30, which specifically designates such steel as "of high-strength steel." The "Other" designation here signifies all electrolytically zinc-plated or coated flat-rolled steel that does not meet the high-strength criteria.

The critical differentiator for this classification lies in the combination of electrolytic zinc plating or coating and the exclusion of high-strength steel properties. Products falling into this category are generally intended for applications where corrosion resistance is important, but the enhanced mechanical properties of high-strength steel are not a primary requirement. Examples could include general construction materials, automotive body panels (not requiring specific impact resistance), or household appliance components. The base metal is iron or nonalloy steel, and the width is a defining characteristic for inclusion in heading 7210.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification under 7210.30.00.60 is definitive once the criteria of being flat-rolled, of iron or nonalloy steel, 600 mm or more in width, electrolytically plated or coated with zinc, and not being of high-strength steel are met.
