Overview
This HTS classification, 7219.33.00.70, specifically covers flat-rolled stainless steel products that are not further worked than cold-rolled (cold-reduced), have a width of 600 mm or more, a thickness exceeding 1 mm but less than 3 mm, and are not in coils. Crucially, these products contain more than 0.5 percent but less than 24 percent by weight of nickel, distinguishing them from other stainless steel grades based on their specific nickel content.
This category is differentiated from its sibling, 7219.33.00.80, which is also for "Other" flat-rolled stainless steel products meeting the same width and thickness criteria and being "not in coils" and "not further worked than cold-rolled." The distinction between these two categories hinges solely on the nickel content; this classification applies when the nickel content falls within the specified range of over 0.5% up to, but not including, 24%.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this specific code is determined by meeting all the preceding physical and material composition criteria, particularly the defined range of nickel content, for flat-rolled stainless steel products that are not in coils and have not undergone further working than cold rolling.
