Overview
This HTS category, 7301.20.50.00, specifically classifies angles, shapes, and sections made from *alloy steel*. These are structural components fabricated from iron with the addition of one or more alloying elements to enhance properties such as strength, hardness, or corrosion resistance. Examples include beams, channels, and angles manufactured from alloyed steel compositions, often used in construction, engineering, and manufacturing where specific performance characteristics are required.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 7301.20.10.00, which covers similar structural forms but is limited to those made of *iron or nonalloy steel*. The defining characteristic for classification within 7301.20.50.00 is the presence of alloying elements beyond that found in standard carbon steel. Therefore, the chemical composition of the steel is the primary determinant for differentiating these two categories.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. The classification ends with the distinction between alloy steel and nonalloy steel for these specific angles, shapes, and sections.
