About steel, alloy; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, n.e.c. in heading no. 7225, electrolytically plated or coated with zinc

HS code 722591 covers a specific type of steel product - alloy steel that is flat-rolled, with a width of 600mm or more, and is electrolytically plated or coated with zinc. This type of steel is widely used in various industries, including construction, automotive, and manufacturing, due to its durability, corrosion resistance, and versatility. As a key component in many industrial applications, the trade and production of these steel products play a significant role in the global economy.

Production process

The production of steel products under HS code 722591 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the steel alloy is produced by combining iron with other elements such as chromium, nickel, or manganese. The alloy is then heated and rolled into flat sheets or plates with a width of 600mm or more. Finally, the steel is electrolytically plated or coated with a layer of zinc, which provides enhanced corrosion resistance and a protective finish.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of steel products under HS code 722591 include iron ore, alloying elements (such as chromium, nickel, or manganese), and zinc for the electrolytic plating or coating process. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as furnaces, rolling mills, and electrolytic plating tanks, are essential for the various stages of production.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 722591 is flat-rolled, zinc-coated alloy steel products, which are used in a wide range of applications. These steel products may be further processed or incorporated into the manufacturing of 730110 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel; plates, rods, angles, shapes, sections, tubes and the like, prepared for use in structures, 870120 Motor vehicles for the transport of goods, and 940320 Metal furniture, n.e.c. in heading no. 9403, among other industries.
