Chapter 72: Iron and steel

Plain-language overview

The 72 chapter focuses on iron and steel, which are fundamental materials in various industries, from construction to manufacturing. This chapter encompasses a wide range of products made from iron and steel, highlighting their importance in global trade.

Under heading 7208, the scope narrows to flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel that are hot-rolled and have a width of 600mm or more. These products are essential for applications requiring substantial structural integrity and durability.

The specific HS-6 code 720836 refers to flat-rolled products that are hot-rolled and have a thickness exceeding 10mm. These products are typically produced in coils and are characterized by their lack of patterns in relief, making them suitable for various industrial applications.

Common uses for these products include manufacturing heavy machinery, structural components, and various construction materials. Understanding this code is crucial for importers and exporters dealing with large-scale steel products.
