About steel, alloy; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, of silicon-electrical steel, (other than grain-oriented)

HS code 722519 covers the classification of flat-rolled steel products that are alloy-based, have a width of 600mm or more, and are made of silicon-electrical steel, excluding grain-oriented varieties. This industry plays a crucial role in the manufacturing and energy sectors, providing essential materials for the production of transformers, electric motors, and other electrical equipment. As a key component of the broader steel industry, the 722519 classification contributes significantly to the global economy and international trade.

Production process

The production of flat-rolled steel products under HS code 722519 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, including iron ore, coal, and alloying elements, are smelted in a blast furnace to produce molten steel. The molten steel is then cast into solid forms, such as slabs or billets. These semi-finished products are then subjected to hot or cold rolling processes, which reduce the thickness and shape the steel into the desired flat-rolled form. The final step often includes specialized heat treatments and coatings to enhance the steel's electrical and magnetic properties, making it suitable for use in electrical applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 722519 flat-rolled steel products include iron ore, coal, and various alloying elements, such as silicon. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment, such as blast furnaces, rolling mills, and heat treatment facilities. Skilled labor, energy resources, and transportation infrastructure are also crucial inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of the HS code 722519 industry is flat-rolled steel products that are suitable for use in electrical applications, such as transformers, generators, and electric motors. These steel products may be further processed or consumed by other industries, including 853120 (Electrical transformers, static converters (for example, rectifiers) and inductors) and 850300 Parts suitable for use solely or principally with the machines of heading 8501 or 8502.
