7219.22.00.25 - Of a width exceeding 1880 mm

This HTS category, 7219.22.00.25, specifically classifies flat-rolled products of stainless steel that have undergone hot rolling but are not in coils. These products must have a thickness between 4.75 mm and 10 mm, and importantly, their width must exceed 1880 mm. Furthermore, the material composition is critical, requiring the stainless steel to contain more than 0.5 percent by weight of nickel and more than 1.5 percent but less than 5 percent by weight of molybdenum.

This classification is distinguished from its siblings by the specific width requirement. While 7219.22.00.15 covers products with a width not exceeding 1575 mm, and 7219.22.00.20 includes those exceeding 1575 mm but not exceeding 1880 mm, this category is for the widest hot-rolled stainless steel sheets and plates, those measuring over 1880 mm across.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. This means that stainless steel flat-rolled products meeting all the specified criteria – hot-rolled, not in coils, specific thickness range, exceeding 1880 mm width, and defined nickel and molybdenum content – are definitively classified here. Examples of such products would include large, thick stainless steel plates intended for industrial applications like shipbuilding, heavy machinery, or large structural components where exceptional width is a key functional requirement.
