Overview
This HTS classification, 7210.70.60.60, encompasses flat-rolled products of iron or nonalloy steel, at least 600 mm wide, which have been painted, varnished, or coated with plastics, and specifically, are zinc coated or plated, but not through electrolytic means. The primary characteristic here is the non-electrolytic application of zinc coating or plating onto the pre-treated steel surface. This process can include methods such as hot-dip galvanizing or other mechanical coating techniques.
To distinguish this category from its sibling, 7210.70.60.30, it is crucial to identify the method of zinc application. While both are zinc-coated or plated, the sibling category specifically covers products where the zinc coating is achieved through electrolytic processes. Therefore, this category covers all other methods of zinc coating or plating for painted, varnished, or plastic-coated steel, excluding those explicitly defined as electrolytically coated.
As this classification represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. The classification is definitive for these specific goods, and further breakdowns do not occur at this level. Classification into this category relies on the confirmation of the steel's dimensions, the type of surface treatment (painted, varnished, or plastic-coated), and the application of zinc coating or plating by non-electrolytic methods.
