About aluminium; plates, sheets and strip, thickness exceeding 0.2mm, alloys, (not rectangular or square)

HS code 760692 covers the import and export of aluminium plates, sheets, and strips that are alloy-based and exceed 0.2mm in thickness. This industry plays a crucial role in the global manufacturing and construction sectors, providing essential raw materials for a wide range of applications, from automotive and aerospace to consumer electronics and infrastructure development.

Production process

The production of aluminium plates, sheets, and strips under HS code 760692 typically involves a multi-step process. First, aluminium alloy ingots are melted and cast into the desired shape. The cast material is then subjected to hot or cold rolling, which reduces the thickness and improves the material's mechanical properties. Finally, the rolled aluminium is cut and trimmed to the required dimensions, ensuring precise specifications for end-use applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs for the production of aluminium plates, sheets, and strips under HS code 760692 include aluminium alloy ingots, which serve as the primary raw material. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized rolling mills, cutting equipment, and various tools and machinery to facilitate the manufacturing process. Energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are also essential for melting, casting, and rolling the aluminium.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 760692 are aluminium plates, sheets, and strips that are used in a wide range of industries. These materials are often consumed by manufacturers of 760410 Aluminium; bars, rods and profiles, not alloyed, 760511 Aluminium; wire, not alloyed, and 760711 Aluminium; foil, thickness not exceeding 0.2mm, not backed, among others, who incorporate them into their final products.
