HS v2017 Code: 731420

About iron or steel wire; grill, netting and fencing, welded at intersections, of wire with a maximum cross-sectional dimension of 3mm or more and mesh size 100cm2 or more

HS code 731420 covers a range of iron or steel wire products, including grills, netting, and fencing. These items are widely used in construction, infrastructure, and industrial applications, playing a crucial role in the broader economy. The welded intersections and larger mesh size make these products suitable for a variety of heavy-duty uses, where strength and durability are essential.

Production process

The production of items under HS code 731420 typically involves a multi-step process. First, steel wire is drawn to the required diameter and then welded at the intersections to form the desired grill, netting, or fencing pattern. The welding process ensures the structural integrity of the final product. Depending on the application, the wire may undergo additional treatments, such as galvanization, to enhance corrosion resistance.

Production inputs

The main inputs for the production of HS code 731420 items include steel wire, welding equipment, and various tools and machinery for shaping and assembling the final products. The quality and properties of the steel wire, such as tensile strength and corrosion resistance, are crucial factors in determining the performance of the finished goods.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS code 731420 are iron or steel grills, netting, and fencing products. These items are widely used in 730820 Construction materials, 730900 Storage tanks, reservoirs and containers of iron or steel, and 731010 Tanks, casks, drums, cans, boxes and similar containers, of iron or steel, among other industries. The welded intersections and larger mesh size make these products suitable for a variety of heavy-duty applications.
