Overview
This HTS classification, 7314.42.00.60, covers all remaining iron or steel wire cloth, grill, netting, and fencing that are coated with plastics, but are not chain link fencing. This specifically includes items like welded wire mesh, woven wire cloth, and various types of fences or grills where the wire or the completed product has been covered with a plastic coating for enhanced durability, corrosion resistance, or aesthetic purposes. The key defining characteristic is the combination of iron or steel wire construction, its form (cloth, grill, netting, or fencing), and a plastic coating, excluding the specifically enumerated chain link fencing.
Compared to its sibling category, 7314.42.00.30 (Chain link fencing), this category captures all other forms of wire cloth, grill, netting, and fencing that meet the plastic coating criteria. Chain link fencing is characterized by its interlocking diamond pattern formed from bent wire. Therefore, if a product is made from iron or steel wire, coated with plastic, and is not a chain link fence, it will fall under this residual "Other" classification.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 7314.42.00.60 is determined by the presence of an iron or steel wire base, the form factor (cloth, grill, netting, or fencing), and the application of a plastic coating, with the explicit exclusion of chain link fencing. Classification decisions should focus on the physical characteristics and intended use of the merchandise.
