Overview
This HTS classification, 7304.59.80.25, specifically covers seamless tubes and pipes of iron or steel that are made of other alloy steel and have a circular cross-section. These articles are characterized by having a wall thickness that strictly exceeds 12.7 mm. They fall within the broader category of other alloy steel tubes and pipes of circular cross-section, where "other" signifies they do not fit into more specific prior classifications.
The key differentiator for this category is its wall thickness. It is distinct from its sibling categories which cover tubes with wall thicknesses less than 6.4 mm (7304.59.80.15) and those with wall thicknesses between 6.4 mm and 12.7 mm, inclusive (7304.59.80.20). Therefore, any seamless alloy steel tube or pipe with a circular cross-section, an outside diameter between 38.1 mm and 114.3 mm, and a wall thickness precisely greater than 12.7 mm would be classified here.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is determined by the precise combination of material (other alloy steel), form (circular cross-section, seamless), and dimensional specifications, particularly the wall thickness.
