Overview

This HTS category, 7222, encompasses a specific range of semi-finished and finished products made from stainless steel. It covers "other bars and rods" and "angles, shapes, and sections" that are not classified under more specific headings within Chapter 72. The defining characteristic is the material: stainless steel, which is an alloy of iron with a minimum of 10.5% chromium content, providing inherent corrosion resistance. This designation distinguishes it from categories dealing with carbon steel or other ferrous alloys.

Within the broader context of Section XV (Base Metals and Articles of Base Metal) and Chapter 72 (Iron and Steel), this heading is distinct from categories focused on bulk iron and steel products like plates, sheets, wire, or tubes. It specifically addresses elongated forms with defined cross-sections that have undergone forming processes beyond basic initial production.

The subcategories within 7222 further refine the classification based on the finishing processes applied to these stainless steel articles. For instance, the distinction between hot-rolled products and those that have been cold-formed or cold-finished is critical for accurate tariff application. Similarly, a clear division exists between bars and rods versus angles, shapes, and sections, recognizing the different geometric profiles and potential end-uses of these stainless steel forms.
