Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 721935 when importing or exporting cold-rolled stainless steel flat-rolled products that are 600mm or wider and less than 0.5mm thick. An example would be a shipment of stainless steel sheets used in kitchen equipment manufacturing.
This code specifically applies to thin, cold-rolled stainless steel sheets, which differ from thicker products classified under HS-6 721934. The latter includes flat-rolled products with a thickness of 0.5mm or more, making it crucial to measure the thickness accurately.
When dealing with flat-rolled stainless steel products, it's important to note that HS-6 721935 is distinct from other stainless steel categories, such as those that cover bars or rods. This code targets sheets and coils, often used in applications requiring corrosion resistance and aesthetic finishes.
If you're unsure about the classification, consider the end use of the product. For instance, if the flat-rolled product is intended for automotive parts or architectural panels, it likely falls under this code, provided it meets the width and thickness criteria.
