7304.41.60.05 - Of high-nickel alloy steel

This classification covers seamless tubes, pipes, and hollow profiles made from iron or steel, specifically those of circular cross-section and manufactured from stainless steel. Within the broader category of stainless steel tubes, this subcategory specifically includes products that have undergone cold-drawing or cold-rolling processes. These methods enhance the dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and mechanical properties of the tubular products, making them suitable for applications requiring tight tolerances and superior surface quality.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling involves understanding the manufacturing process. While other sibling categories at this level might encompass stainless steel tubes produced through different methods (e.g., hot-finished), this node is exclusively for those subjected to cold reduction techniques. The emphasis is on the "cold-drawn or cold-rolled (cold-reduced)" attribute as the primary differentiator, signifying a post-forming treatment that significantly alters the material's characteristics.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification within this category hinges on meeting all the preceding criteria: seamless construction, circular cross-section, stainless steel composition, and the application of cold-drawing or cold-rolling. Examples of goods falling here include precision stainless steel tubing for medical devices, aerospace components, or high-pressure hydraulic systems where the enhanced properties achieved through cold working are essential.
