Iron or non-alloy steel; in coils, flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, cold-rolled, of a thickness of less than 0.5mm
HS v2022 Code: 720918
About iron or non-alloy steel; in coils, flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, cold-rolled, of a thickness of less than 0.5mm
HS code 720918 covers a crucial segment of the steel industry, encompassing iron or non-alloy steel products that are flat-rolled, cold-rolled, and have a width of 600mm or more with a thickness of less than 0.5mm. These steel products are widely used in various manufacturing and construction applications, making them an essential component of the global economy.
Production process
The production of the steel products covered by HS code 720918 typically involves a multi-step process. First, raw materials such as iron ore and coal are smelted in a blast furnace to produce molten pig iron. The 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 rolled and cold-rolled to achieve the desired thickness and width specifications.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of the steel products covered by HS code 720918 include iron ore, coal, and other raw materials used in the steelmaking process. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as rolling mills, cold-rolling mills, and finishing lines, are essential for the manufacturing of these steel products.
Production outputs
The steel products covered by HS code 720918 are primarily used as inputs for various manufacturing and construction industries. These steel products may be further processed or fabricated into a wide range of end-use products, such as 721012 Flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel, of a width of 600 mm or more, hot-rolled, not clad, plated or coated, 721049 Flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel, of a width of 600 mm or more, hot-rolled, not clad, plated or coated, and 721070 (Flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel, of a width of 600 mm or more, cold-rolled (cold-reduced), not clad, plated or coated).
