7219.12.00.51 - Of a width not exceeding 1575 mm

This HTS classification covers flat-rolled products of stainless steel that have undergone hot-rolling and are supplied in coils. Specifically, these products are of a thickness ranging from 4.75 mm to 10 mm, and their width does not exceed 1575 mm. Within the broader category of "Other" for hot-rolled stainless steel coils of this thickness, this subcategory further refines the classification based on the product's width.

The primary distinguishing feature of this category from its sibling is the defined width constraint. While this category encompasses products with a width not exceeding 1575 mm, its sibling, HTS code 7219.12.00.56, covers similar hot-rolled stainless steel coils of the same thickness but with a width exceeding 1575 mm. Therefore, the precise measurement of the product's width is the crucial factor in determining its correct classification.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Classification at this level is determined by the specific physical characteristics of the hot-rolled stainless steel coil, namely its material composition (stainless steel), form (flat-rolled, in coils), thickness range (4.75 mm to 10 mm), and importantly, its width not exceeding 1575 mm. Correct classification ensures accurate duty assessment and trade statistics.
