About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 7216.10.00.50, specifically covers "Other" angles, shapes, and sections of iron or nonalloy steel that meet the criteria of not being further worked than hot-rolled, hot-drawn, or extruded, and have a height of less than 80 mm. This residual category is for items that do not fit into the more specific U-shaped sections (7216.10.00.10). It encompasses a variety of cross-sectional forms, such as L-shaped angles, T-shaped sections, and other structural profiles within the defined size constraints.

The distinction between this "Other" category and its sibling, "U sections," lies in the specific geometric profile. While both are hot-worked, unfinished, and under 80 mm in height, this sub-heading is for any such profiles *other than* U-shaped ones. Therefore, classification hinges on identifying the specific cross-sectional shape of the iron or nonalloy steel article.

As this node is a leaf node in the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification of an article under 7216.10.00.50 depends entirely on its adherence to the parent category's definition and its exclusion from more specifically defined sibling categories at the same level. It is crucial to examine the physical dimensions and cross-sectional shape to ensure correct entry under this residual classification.
