Overview
This classification covers specific types of line pipe made from iron or nonalloy steel. These pipes are designed for use in oil and gas pipelines and are characterized by having an outside diameter that does not exceed 114.3 millimeters. The category encompasses welded, seamless, and other forms of pipe construction within this diameter limitation, as long as they meet the material and end-use criteria for pipeline applications.
The primary distinction for this category lies in the outside diameter. It is differentiated from its sibling category (7306.19.10.50), which covers similar line pipe but with an outside diameter exceeding 114.3 millimeters. Therefore, the precise measurement of the pipe's diameter is crucial for correct classification.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions under this specific code. Classification decisions at this level will hinge on confirming that the imported articles are indeed line pipe intended for oil or gas pipelines and possess an outside diameter within the stipulated limit, and are manufactured from iron or nonalloy steel.
