Overview
This HTS classification, 7228.60.10.60, specifically covers "Other" bars and rods of other alloy steel. Within the broader category of "Other bars and rods," this subheading differentiates itself by excluding tool steel (other than high-speed steel) and ball-bearing steel. Therefore, it encompasses bars and rods made from alloy steels that do not fit into the more specialized categories of tool steels or ball-bearing steels, focusing on their alloy composition and form.
The key distinction of this category lies in its "other alloy steel" designation. While the parent category deals with a range of alloy steel bars and rods, this particular subheading is for those alloy steels not specifically defined as tool steel (which typically includes steels with high hardness, wear resistance, and heat resistance, often containing significant amounts of tungsten, molybdenum, or cobalt) or ball-bearing steel (characterized by exceptional hardness, toughness, and fatigue resistance, primarily used in bearing components).
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification into 7228.60.10.60 depends on confirming the material is an alloy steel and that the bar or rod does not meet the specific definitions for tool steel (other than high-speed steel) or ball-bearing steel. Practical classification will rely on verifying the chemical composition of the alloy steel and its intended application, ensuring it falls outside the scope of more narrowly defined classifications.
