Overview
This HTS category, 7225, encompasses flat-rolled products of alloy steel that measure 600 millimeters or more in width. Alloy steel, by definition, contains one or more alloying elements, such as chromium, nickel, molybdenum, or vanadium, in quantities sufficient to impart special properties like increased strength, hardness, or corrosion resistance, beyond those achieved by carbon alone. These products are distinct from flat-rolled carbon steel under Chapter 72, which are classified separately based on their chemical composition and mechanical properties.
Unlike its sibling categories which span a vast array of goods from live animals to machinery, HTS 7225 is specifically focused on semi-finished or finished steel products in a particular form. The key distinguishing factors for classification within this category are the steel's alloy composition and its dimensions – specifically, being flat-rolled with a width of at least 600 mm. This excludes items like bars, rods, or wire forms, as well as flat-rolled products of carbon steel.
The subcategories within 7225 further refine the classification based on the processing applied to the flat-rolled alloy steel. These subdivisions distinguish between products based on whether they are of silicon electrical steel, or other types of alloy steel. Further distinctions are made based on the method of rolling (hot-rolled vs. cold-rolled) and whether the product is supplied in coils or not. This allows for precise identification of the specific form and manufacturing stage of the alloy steel product.
