7220.20.60.60 - Containing less than 15 percent by weight of chromium

This HTS category, 7220.20.60.60, specifically classifies flat-rolled products of stainless steel that are not further worked than cold-rolled (cold-reduced), have a width of less than 600 mm, and a thickness exceeding 1.25 mm. Crucially, these stainless steel products must contain less than 15 percent by weight of chromium. The "Other" designation within this sub-branch indicates a residual classification for stainless steel products meeting all the preceding criteria but not specifically enumerated in other subcategories under 7220.20.60.

To distinguish this category from its sibling, 7220.20.60.80, it is important to note that both fall under the "Other" subheading at this level. However, this specific category is reserved for stainless steel with a chromium content *below* 15 percent. The sibling category, 7220.20.60.80, would likely encompass other stainless steel products that do not meet the specific chromium threshold or other defining characteristics of this node.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is definitive for stainless steel flat-rolled products meeting the specified dimensions and chemical composition. Practical classification hinges on verifying the material composition (specifically the chromium percentage), confirming the cold-rolled state, measuring the width (less than 600 mm) and thickness (exceeding 1.25 mm), and ensuring the product is not further worked beyond the cold-rolling process.
