About iron or non-alloy steel; (not in coils), flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, cold-rolled, of a thickness of 0.5mm or more but not exceeding 1mm

HS code 720927 covers a specific type of iron or non-alloy steel product - flat-rolled steel sheets that are cold-rolled, have a width of 600mm or more, and a thickness between 0.5mm and 1mm. This product is widely used in various industries, including automotive, construction, and manufacturing, making it an important component of the global steel trade and a key contributor to economic activity.

Production process

The production of flat-rolled steel sheets under HS code 720927 typically involves a multi-step process. First, raw materials such as iron ore and coal are smelted in a blast furnace to produce crude steel. The crude steel is then cast into slabs or billets, which are subsequently rolled and flattened in a series of rolling mills to achieve the desired thickness and width. Finally, the steel sheets are cold-rolled, a process that further enhances their strength and surface finish.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of flat-rolled steel sheets under HS code 720927 include iron ore, coal, and other raw materials used in steel production. Additionally, specialized machinery such as rolling mills, annealing furnaces, and cutting equipment are essential for the manufacturing process. Energy sources, such as electricity and natural gas, are also crucial inputs for the industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 720927 is flat-rolled steel sheets, which are then used as inputs for a wide range of industries. These steel sheets may be further processed or fabricated into various products, such as 721012 automotive body panels, 730120 construction materials, and 732111 household appliances. The steel sheets produced under this code are also often used in the manufacturing of 840710 internal combustion engines and 870321 passenger vehicles.
