Overview
This HTS category encompasses stainless steel bars and rods that have undergone hot-rolling, hot-drawing, or extrusion processes and are of a circular cross-section. Specifically, these items are characterized by a nickel content ranging from 8 percent up to, but not including, 24 percent by weight. The "maximum cross-sectional dimension of 152.4 mm or more" signifies that the diameter of these circular bars and rods must meet or exceed this measurement.
This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 7222.11.00.82, which covers similar stainless steel bars and rods but with a nickel content of less than 8 percent by weight. The specified nickel percentage is the primary differentiating factor for accurate classification at this level.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this specific HTS code. Therefore, classification within 7222.11.00.84 is determined by the described physical attributes: stainless steel composition, manufacturing process (hot-rolled, hot-drawn, or extruded), circular cross-section, and the precise range of nickel content (8% to <24%), alongside the minimum diameter.
