HS-6 · Subheading
722691
Steel, alloy; flat-rolled, width less than 600mm, (excluding silicon-electrical or high speed steel), hot-rolled
Heading 7226 — Alloy steel flat-rolled products, of a width of less than 600mm
Chapter 72: Iron and steel
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 722691 when importing or exporting hot-rolled alloy steel flat-rolled products that are less than 600mm in width. For example, if you're shipping a batch of hot-rolled alloy steel sheets for automotive manufacturing, this code applies.
This code specifically covers flat-rolled products made from alloy steel, excluding those classified as silicon-electrical or high-speed steel. If you're considering HS-6 722692, which includes cold-rolled products, be aware that the processing method affects classification.
When dealing with alloy steel flat-rolled products, it’s important to note that they are often used in applications requiring enhanced strength and durability. This includes products like structural components or automotive parts.
If you're unsure whether your product fits under this code, consider the width and the type of steel. For instance, products wider than 600mm or those made from high-speed steel would not qualify under this HS-6.
