Overview
This HTS classification, 7306.40.50.62, specifically covers welded tubes, pipes, and hollow profiles of iron or steel that have a circular cross-section, are made of stainless steel, and possess a wall thickness of 1.65 mm or more. The key distinguishing characteristic for this particular subcategory is its alloy composition, requiring the material to contain more than 0.5 percent but less than 24 percent by weight of nickel, and crucially, more than 1.5 percent but less than 5 percent by weight of molybdenum.
This node is distinct from its sibling, 7306.40.50.64 ("Other"), as the latter would encompass stainless steel welded circular hollow profiles with a wall thickness of 1.65 mm or more that do *not* meet the specific molybdenum content criteria outlined here. Therefore, the presence and precise percentage range of molybdenum are the primary determinants for classifying goods under this heading, ensuring accurate trade data and duty assessment.
As this classification represents a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification decisions at this level are based on the exhaustive set of criteria already met: being a welded circular profile of stainless steel with a wall thickness of 1.65 mm or more, an outside diameter not exceeding 114.3 mm, containing between 0.5% and 24% nickel, and specifically falling within the 1.5% to 5% molybdenum weight range.
