7220.20.90.60 - Other 🖩

This classification, 7220.20.90.60, pertains to flat-rolled products of stainless steel that have undergone cold rolling (cold reduction). These products are characterized by a width of less than 600 mm, and specifically, a width of less than 300 mm. Furthermore, they possess a thickness that does not exceed 0.25 mm. This "Other" designation signifies that these products do not fit into the more specific subcategories that might exist for stainless steel flat-rolled products meeting these width and thickness criteria.

The distinguishing factor for this category, when compared to its sibling 7220.20.90.30, lies in the absence of a specific nickel content requirement. While the sibling category explicitly defines goods containing between 0.5 percent and 24 percent nickel by weight, this category is broader and encompasses all other stainless steel flat-rolled products that meet the specified dimensional and cold-rolling criteria, irrespective of their precise nickel composition, as long as they qualify as stainless steel.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification into 7220.20.90.60 is final for goods that meet all the preceding descriptive criteria, including being flat-rolled stainless steel, cold-rolled, less than 600 mm wide, less than 300 mm wide, and not exceeding 0.25 mm in thickness, and do not fall under any other more specifically defined category at this level. Examples could include certain types of stainless steel foil or very thin strip used in specialized industrial applications where the nickel content does not meet the threshold for the sibling classification.
