8455.30.00.15 - Exceeding 2,268 kg but not exceeding 6,803.9 kg

This HTS category, 8455.30.00.15, specifically classifies rolls for metal rolling mills that are manufactured from gray iron and have a weight exceeding 2,268 kg but not exceeding 6,803.9 kg. These rolls are essential components in the process of shaping metal into sheets, plates, bars, or other forms through the application of pressure between rotating rolls. The gray iron composition indicates a specific material characteristic important for durability and performance in rolling operations.

This classification is distinguished from its siblings by precise weight parameters. Rolls weighing not exceeding 2,268 kg fall under HTS code 8455.30.00.05, while those exceeding 6,803.9 kg are classified under 8455.30.00.25. Therefore, the weight of the gray iron roll is the sole differentiating factor at this specific level of detail within the broader category of rolls for rolling mills.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under this classification. The classification is complete at this level, focusing on the type of roll (for rolling mills), material (gray iron), and a specific weight range. Importers and exporters should ensure that the net weight of the gray iron rolls falls precisely within the 2,268 kg to 6,803.9 kg range to correctly apply this tariff code.
