7227.90.60.90 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 7227.90.60.90, encompasses "Other" bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils, of other alloy steel, that do not fall under more specific subheadings at this level. The defining characteristic is that these are alloy steel products meeting the general criteria of the parent category (hot-rolled, irregularly wound coils, other alloy steel) but are not specifically designated as high-nickel alloy steel, cold heading quality (CHQ) steel, welding quality wire rods, or those of a circular cross-section.

To differentiate, this category serves as a residual for other alloy steel bars and rods in coiled form. It excludes items specifically listed in sibling categories such as those made of high-nickel alloys (7227.90.60.05), those designated for cold heading applications (7227.90.60.10), welding quality wire rods (7227.90.60.20), and crucially, those with a circular cross-section. The goods classified here will thus possess characteristics that place them within the broader "other alloy steel" designation but lack the specific material compositions or intended end-uses that would warrant placement in the preceding sibling categories.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 7227.90.60.90 relies on thoroughly examining the specifications of the imported goods to ensure they meet the general requirements of Section XV, Chapter 72, heading 7227, and the specific conditions of subheading 7227.90, while demonstrably not fitting into any of the more precisely defined sibling classifications at the .60 level. Practical examples might include bars and rods of other alloy steels with non-circular cross-sections that are not specifically of welding quality or CHQ, and are not primarily composed of high-nickel alloys.
