HS v2022 Code: 720836

About iron or non-alloy steel; in coils, without patterns in relief, flat-rolled, of a width 600mm or more, hot-rolled, of a thickness exceeding 10mm

HS code 720836 covers a crucial category of iron and non-alloy steel products that are widely used in various industries, including construction, automotive, and manufacturing. These flat-rolled steel coils, produced through hot-rolling processes, play a vital role in the global supply chain, providing essential raw materials for a diverse range of downstream applications.

Production process

The production of the steel products covered by HS code 720836 typically involves a multi-step hot-rolling process. First, raw materials such as iron ore and coal are smelted in a blast furnace to produce molten pig iron. This pig iron is then refined in a basic oxygen furnace or electric arc furnace to remove impurities and produce steel. The steel is then cast into slabs or billets, which are subsequently reheated and passed through a series of rolling mills to reduce the thickness and shape the material into the desired flat-rolled coils.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the steel products under HS code 720836 include iron ore, coal, and other alloying elements such as manganese, chromium, and nickel. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized rolling mills, furnaces, and other heavy machinery to facilitate the hot-rolling process. Energy sources, such as electricity and natural gas, are also crucial inputs for the production of these steel coils.

Production outputs

The steel coils produced under HS code 720836 are primarily used as raw materials for the manufacturing of various steel-based products, including 730120 Steel Structures and Parts, 730890 Structures and Parts of Structures, and 870120 Tractors. These flat-rolled steel coils are often further processed, such as through cold-rolling or coating, to meet the specific requirements of downstream industries.
