Overview
This HTS subcategory, 7220.90.00.15, covers "Other" flat-rolled products of stainless steel with a width of less than 600 mm that contain more than 0.5 percent but less than 24 percent by weight of nickel. This designation is applied when the specific nickel content falls within this defined range, and the product does not meet the criteria for other more specific subcategories within the broader classification of stainless steel flat-rolled products of this width.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 7220.90.00.10. While both are "Other" flat-rolled stainless steel products under 600 mm wide, the key differentiator lies in their specific elemental composition. Category 7220.90.00.10 is reserved for products containing more than 1.5 percent but less than 5 percent by weight of molybdenum. Therefore, classification under 7220.90.00.15 requires a nickel content within its specified range and a molybdenum content that does not align with the sibling category.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is determined solely by the physical characteristics of the flat-rolled stainless steel product, specifically its width (less than 600 mm) and its precise chemical composition with respect to nickel content. Importers and exporters should meticulously verify the chemical analysis of their stainless steel products to ensure accurate classification and compliance with customs regulations.
