7310.29.00.30 - Other

This HTS classification, 7310.29.00.30, encompasses "Other" containers of iron or steel with a capacity not exceeding 300 liters. Specifically, it falls under categories for containers with a capacity of less than 50 liters and those of circular cross-section, with a volume capacity ranging from 11.4 liters to 26.6 liters, primarily intended for the conveyance of goods. These containers are characterized by their construction from iron or steel, may be lined or heat-insulated, but lack any fitted mechanical or thermal equipment.

This category distinguishes itself from its sibling, 7310.29.00.20, which specifically covers refillable stainless steel kegs, whether or not pressurized. While both are containers, 7310.29.00.30 is broader and includes a wider array of non-keg, circular cross-section containers within the specified volume range, which are not necessarily refillable or pressurized. The "Other" designation signifies that it captures all eligible containers that do not fit into more specific subcategories at this level.

As a leaf node within the HTS, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on meeting the specific criteria of circular cross-section, a volume between 11.4 and 26.6 liters, use for goods conveyance, and absence of mechanical or thermal equipment, while also adhering to the general requirements of Chapter 73 for iron or steel articles and Section XV for base metals. Examples could include certain types of steel drums, cans, or pails used for shipping liquids or solids, provided they meet all outlined physical and functional specifications.
