About iron or non-alloy steel; (not in coils), flat-rolled, of a width 600mm or more, hot-rolled, without patterns in relief, of a thickness of 3mm or more but less than 4.75mm

HS code 720853 covers a specific type of flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel products that are widely used in various industries, including construction, automotive, and manufacturing. This category of steel products plays a crucial role in the global economy, providing essential raw materials for the production of a wide range of goods and infrastructure. Understanding the characteristics and production processes of these steel products is crucial for businesses involved in international trade and supply chain management.

Production process

The production of the steel products covered by HS code 720853 typically involves a hot-rolling process. In this process, steel slabs or billets are heated to high temperatures and then passed through a series of rollers, which gradually reduce the thickness of the material while increasing its length and width. The hot-rolling process helps to improve the strength and durability of the steel, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the steel products covered by HS code 720853 include iron ore, coal, and other raw materials used in the steel-making process. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as furnaces, rolling mills, and cutting tools, are essential for the hot-rolling and finishing stages of production.

Production outputs

The steel products covered by HS code 720853 are primarily used as raw materials for the manufacturing of various metal-based products, such as 730110 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel; plates, rods, angles, shapes, sections, tubes and the like, prepared for use in structures, 730890 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel; other, and 870120 (Motor vehicles for the transport of goods; tractors (other than tractors of heading 8709)). These steel products are also consumed by industries involved in the production of 731100 Containers for compressed or liquefied gas, of iron or steel, 732111 (Stoves, ranges, grates, cookers (including those with subsidiary boilers for central heating), barbecues, braziers, gas-rings, plate warmers and similar non-electric domestic appliances, and parts thereof, of iron or steel), and a wide range of other metal-based goods.
