7219.32.00.38 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 7219.32.00.38, specifically classifies flat-rolled products of stainless steel that meet several precise criteria. These products are of a width of 600 mm or more, have undergone cold rolling (cold reduction), and possess a thickness ranging from 3 mm to less than 4.75 mm. Furthermore, they are presented in coils and fall under the "Other" subcategories for both processing and composition, indicating they do not fit into more specific predefined classifications at this level.

The key differentiator for this specific category lies within its nickel content. It covers stainless steel coils within the specified thickness and cold-rolled parameters that contain *more than 0.5 percent by weight of nickel*. This distinguishes it from sibling categories like 7219.32.00.36, which are specifically for stainless steel coils containing more than 1.5 percent but less than 5 percent by weight of molybdenum, irrespective of their nickel content. The presence of a significant nickel component, beyond a minimal threshold, is the defining characteristic here.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, classification within 7219.32.00.38 relies entirely on the precise fulfillment of all preceding criteria: the material being stainless steel, its flat-rolled form with a width of 600 mm or more, cold-rolled processing, a thickness between 3 mm and 4.75 mm, presentation in coils, and crucially, a nickel content exceeding 0.5 percent by weight, without being specifically defined by other elements like molybdenum in the manner of its sibling.
