Radiators and parts thereof; for central heating, (not electrically heated), of iron or steel other than cast iron

HS v2017 Code: 732219

About radiators and parts thereof; for central heating, (not electrically heated), of iron or steel other than cast iron

HS code 732219 covers radiators and their parts for central heating systems, excluding those made of cast iron. These radiators are essential components in residential, commercial, and industrial heating infrastructure, playing a crucial role in maintaining comfortable indoor environments. As a key part of the broader heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry, the production and trade of these radiators are integral to the global economy.

Production process

The production of radiators under HS code 732219 typically involves a series of metalworking processes. Steel sheets or tubes are cut, bent, and welded to form the radiator's core structure. Specialized machinery is used to create the intricate fin patterns that maximize heat transfer. The radiators may also undergo surface treatments, such as painting or galvanization, to enhance their durability and aesthetic appeal.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of radiators under HS code 732219 include steel sheets or tubes, welding consumables, and specialized metalworking equipment. Manufacturers may also utilize various paints, coatings, and other finishing materials to enhance the radiators' performance and appearance. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce capable of operating the necessary machinery and adhering to quality standards.

Production outputs

Radiators produced under HS code 732219 are primarily used in central heating systems for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. These radiators are often connected to boilers or other heat sources to distribute warmth throughout a building. The output of this industry may be consumed by 732211 Radiators for central heating, not electrically heated, of cast iron and 732212 Radiators for central heating, not electrically heated, of iron or steel other than cast iron.
