About iron or non-alloy steel; in coils, without patterns in relief, flat-rolled, of a width 600mm or more, hot-rolled, of a thickness of less than 3mm

HS code 720839 covers a crucial category of iron and non-alloy steel products that are widely used in various industries. These flat-rolled steel coils, hot-rolled and less than 3mm thick, are an essential raw material for manufacturing a diverse range of goods, from construction materials to automotive components. Their importance in the global economy cannot be overstated, as they support the development of infrastructure, transportation, and numerous other sectors.

Production process

The production of HS code 720839 steel coils involves a series of complex processes. The raw materials, typically iron ore and coal, are first smelted in a blast furnace to produce molten pig iron. This pig iron is then refined in a basic oxygen furnace or electric arc furnace to remove impurities and create the desired steel composition. The molten steel is then cast into slabs or billets, which are subsequently rolled and coiled to achieve the desired thickness and width specifications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 720839 steel coils include iron ore, coal, and other alloying elements such as manganese, chromium, and nickel. Specialized rolling mills, furnaces, and casting equipment are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor, energy resources, and efficient logistics and transportation systems are crucial for the industry's smooth operation.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 720839 is flat-rolled steel coils, which are then used as inputs for a wide range of downstream industries. These coils may be further processed, cut, or fabricated into various products, including 730890 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel, 870120 Road tractors for semi-trailers, and 732111 Cooking appliances and plate warmers. The versatility of these steel coils makes them an integral component in the global supply chain, supporting the growth and development of numerous sectors.
