Overview
This HTS category, 7318.15.20.65, encompasses bolts and bolts with their nuts or washers entered or exported together, specifically those with shanks or threads measuring 6 mm or more in diameter, and featuring hexagonal heads. These are general-purpose fasteners that do not meet the specific material requirements of other classifications at this level.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 7318.15.20.61, is crucial. While 7318.15.20.61 is reserved exclusively for hexagonal head bolts and their associated nuts or washers that are made of stainless steel, this category, 7318.15.20.65, covers all other hexagonal head bolts and their accompanying fasteners made from iron or steel that are *not* stainless steel. The key differentiator is the material composition.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification decision hinges on accurately confirming the presence of a hexagonal head, the specified diameter of the shank or thread (6 mm or more), and ensuring the material is iron or steel but *not* stainless steel, especially when entered or exported as a set with nuts or washers.
