7318.15.20.41 - Right-angle anchor bolts

This HTS category, 7318.15.20.41, specifically classifies "Right-angle anchor bolts" made of iron or steel. These are bolts designed with an L-shaped shank or an angled configuration intended for secure fastening into a surface, often used in construction and heavy-duty applications. The defining characteristic is their non-linear shank, enabling them to be embedded or fixed at a ninety-degree angle to the attached material.

Within the broader heading for other screws and bolts with shanks or threads of 6 mm or more, this category is distinguished from its sibling, 7318.15.20.46 "Other," by its specific right-angle geometry. While the "Other" category would encompass a wide range of bolts that do not fit more specific descriptions, right-angle anchor bolts possess a unique physical attribute that warrants their separate classification due to their specialized function. As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions, meaning all right-angle anchor bolts of iron or steel that meet the dimensional criteria (6 mm or more diameter) will be classified here.
