HS v2017 Code: 721699

About iron or non-alloy steel; angles, shapes and sections, n.e.c. in heading no. 7216

HS code 721699 covers a wide range of iron or non-alloy steel angles, shapes, and sections that are not elsewhere classified under heading 7216. These products are essential components in various industries, including construction, manufacturing, and infrastructure development. They play a crucial role in the global economy by providing the structural elements necessary for the fabrication of buildings, bridges, machinery, and other vital infrastructure.

Production process

The production of iron or non-alloy steel angles, shapes, and sections typically involves a multi-step process. First, raw materials such as iron ore, coal, and scrap metal are melted in a furnace to produce molten steel. The molten steel is then cast into various shapes and sizes, often using continuous casting or rolling techniques. The cast products are then further processed through rolling, forging, or other metalworking methods to achieve the desired angles, shapes, and sections.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 721699 products include iron ore, coal, scrap metal, and other alloying elements such as manganese, chromium, and nickel. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as furnaces, rolling mills, and forging presses, 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 outputs of HS code 721699 are a wide range of iron or non-alloy steel angles, shapes, and sections that are used in various applications. These products may be consumed by industries such as 730110 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel; plates, rods, angles, shapes, sections, tubes and the like, prepared for use in structures, 730120 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel; towers and lattice masts, and 730840 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel; equipment for scaffolding, shuttering, propping or pit-propping, among others. The specific applications of these products can vary widely, depending on the industry and the end-user's requirements.
