Overview
This classification, HTS Code 7228.70.30.20, specifically covers "Angles" that are made of other alloy steel. These are structural pieces with an L-shaped cross-section, formed by hot-rolling. Crucially, they must not be drilled, punched, or otherwise advanced beyond the initial hot-rolling process. The material composition must meet the criteria for "other alloy steel" as defined within Chapter 72 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule.
This specific category is distinguished from its sibling, 7228.70.30.41 "Other," by its explicit definition as "Angles." While both fall under the broader "Other" subcategory for hot-rolled, un-advanced angles with a maximum cross-sectional dimension of 76mm or more, this node is dedicated to the L-shaped profiles, whereas its sibling would encompass other shapes not specifically enumerated.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on the precise interpretation of "Angles" made from "other alloy steel," hot-rolled, and meeting the specified dimensional and processing criteria. Importers should ensure the goods precisely match the L-shape and the alloy steel composition to correctly apply this code.
