7226.99.01 - Other

HTS code 7226.99.01 encompasses flat-rolled products of other alloy steel, less than 600 mm in width, that are not further worked than hot-rolled or cold-rolled, and are not otherwise specifically enumerated under a more detailed subheading. This "Other" category serves as a residual classification for items that do not fit into the more specific designations within 7226.99.

Crucially, this category distinguishes itself from its siblings, 7226.91 and 7226.92, by its lack of specific further working beyond hot or cold rolling. While 7226.91 covers products not further worked than hot-rolled and 7226.92 covers those not further worked than cold-rolled (cold-reduced), 7226.99.01 is for alloy steel flat-rolled products of less than 600 mm width that have undergone other processing or are not specifically defined by those hot-rolled or cold-rolled states, as long as they are of "other alloy steel."

Within this subheading, further distinctions are made based on plating or coating. Subcategories 7226.99.01.10 and 7226.99.01.30 differentiate between electrolytically plated or coated with zinc and otherwise plated or coated with zinc, respectively. The final subcategory, 7226.99.01.80, is also a residual for any remaining products within 7226.99.01 that do not fall under the specified plating or coating categories, ensuring comprehensive coverage of other alloy steel flat-rolled products meeting the width and general working criteria.
