Overview
This HTS classification, 7227.90.60.05, pertains to hot-rolled bars and rods of "other alloy steel" that are wound into irregular coils. The defining characteristic of this specific subcategory is its material composition: "of high-nickel alloy steel." This means that the steel in question contains a significant proportion of nickel, which imparts specific metallurgical properties such as enhanced corrosion resistance, strength at high temperatures, and ductility.
This category is distinguished from its siblings by its specific material content. Unlike siblings classified as "Cold Heading Quality (CHQ) steel" or "welding quality wire rods," this category focuses solely on the high-nickel alloy composition. Furthermore, while other siblings might cover general "other" classifications or specifically circular cross-sections, this node carves out a niche for high-nickel alloy steel regardless of its specific cross-sectional shape or intended end-use, as long as it meets the criteria of being a hot-rolled bar or rod in irregularly wound coils.
As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, its classification hinges on the accurate identification of the material as a high-nickel alloy steel, alongside the physical form of hot-rolled bars or rods wound into irregular coils, within the broader context of other alloy steel products. Importers and exporters must ensure that their product's technical specifications confirm the presence of a significant nickel content to correctly apply this tariff line.
