Iron or steel; articles n.e.c. in item no. 7326.11, forged or stamped, but not further worked

HS code 732619 covers a wide range of iron or steel articles that are forged or stamped, but not further worked. These products are essential components in various industries, including construction, automotive, and machinery manufacturing. They play a crucial role in the global supply chain, enabling the production of durable and reliable goods that support economic growth and development.

The production of articles under HS code 732619 typically involves forging or stamping techniques. Forging is a metalworking process that uses compressive forces to shape the metal, while stamping involves the use of a die to cut or shape the material. These processes allow manufacturers to create a wide range of shapes and sizes, from simple fasteners to complex structural components, with high levels of precision and strength.

The main inputs required for the production of articles under HS code 732619 include iron or steel raw materials, such as billets, bars, or sheets. Specialized machinery, such as forging presses and stamping equipment, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor and energy resources, such as electricity or natural gas, are necessary to operate the production facilities.

The articles produced under HS code 732619 are used as components in a variety of industries. They may be incorporated into the production of 732690 Iron or steel; articles, n.e.c. or 732619 Iron or steel; articles n.e.c. in item no. 7326.11, forged or stamped, but not further worked, which are then used in the manufacture of 730820 Iron or steel; structures and parts of structures, e.g. bridges and bridge-sections, lock-gates, towers, lattice masts, roofs, roofing frameworks, doors and windows and their frames and thresholds for doors, shutters, balustrades, pillars and columns, 870840 (Motor vehicles; parts and accessories of bodies (including cabs), n.e.c. in 8708), and other products.
