Iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, plated or coated with aluminium zinc-alloys

HS v2017 Code: 721061

About iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, plated or coated with aluminium zinc-alloys

HS code 721061 covers a crucial segment of the steel industry, encompassing iron or non-alloy steel flat-rolled products with a width of 600mm or more, plated or coated with aluminum-zinc alloys. These specialized steel products play a vital role in various industries, including construction, automotive, and infrastructure development, contributing significantly to the global economy.

Production process

The production of steel products under HS code 721061 typically involves a multi-step process. First, raw materials such as iron ore, coal, and scrap steel are melted in a furnace to produce molten steel. The molten steel is then cast into slabs or billets, which are subsequently rolled and flattened into thin sheets or coils. Finally, the steel sheets are coated with an aluminum-zinc alloy, providing enhanced corrosion resistance and improved aesthetic appeal.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 721061 steel products include iron ore, coal, scrap steel, and alloying elements such as aluminum and zinc. Additionally, specialized rolling and coating equipment, as well as skilled labor, are essential for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS code 721061 are flat-rolled steel products, such as sheets and coils, that are plated or coated with an aluminum-zinc alloy. These materials are widely used in the construction industry for roofing, siding, and other building components, as well as in the automotive industry for body panels and other vehicle parts. The output of HS code 721061 may also be consumed by industries producing 721070 Iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, plated or coated and 721090 Iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, clad, plated or coated.
