Expanded metal

Overview

This HTS category, 7314, encompasses a variety of fabricated articles made from iron or steel wire. It broadly covers woven cloth, as well as specific forms of netting, fencing, and expanded metal. The defining characteristic is the use of iron or steel wire as the primary material for constructing these lattice-like or mesh structures. This includes items like wire mesh used for screening, industrial filtration, or decorative purposes, as well as fences constructed from interwoven or welded wire.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings at the HTS Database Root level highlights its specific focus on fabricated iron and steel wire products. For instance, siblings in Chapter 01 deal exclusively with live animals, which have entirely different classification criteria. Category 7314's scope is firmly rooted in metal articles, specifically those formed from wire, differentiating it from other Chapter 73 categories that might cover solid bars, sheets, or pipes of iron or steel.

Within HTS 7314, further subdivisions clarify the specific types of articles. These include woven cloth made from iron or steel wire, and specialized grill, netting, and fencing, often distinguished by welding techniques and dimensions of the wire and mesh. A distinct subcategory also addresses expanded metal, a product formed by slitting and stretching metal sheets to create a diamond-shaped pattern, further segmenting the broad classification of iron and steel wire articles based on their fabrication method and end-use characteristics.
