About steel, alloy; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, n.e.c. in heading no. 7225, electrolytically plated or coated with zinc

HS code 722591 covers a specific type of steel product - flat-rolled alloy steel sheets or plates that are 600mm or wider, and have been electrolytically plated or coated with zinc. This steel product is widely used in various industries, including construction, automotive, and manufacturing, due to its corrosion-resistant properties and versatility. As a key component in many industrial applications, the trade and production of this steel product plays a significant role in the global economy.

Production process

The production of steel products under HS code 722591 typically involves several key steps. First, the raw materials, including iron ore, coal, and various alloying elements, are melted in a furnace to produce the desired steel alloy. The molten steel is then cast into slabs or billets, which are subsequently rolled and flattened into thin sheets or plates. Finally, the flat-rolled steel is electrolytically plated or coated with a layer of zinc to enhance its corrosion resistance and durability.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of steel products under HS code 722591 include iron ore, coal, and various alloying elements such as chromium, nickel, and manganese. Additionally, the production process requires specialized machinery and equipment, such as furnaces, rolling mills, and electrolytic plating or coating systems. Skilled labor, energy, and water resources are also essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 722591 is flat-rolled alloy steel sheets or plates that are 600mm or wider and have been electrolytically plated or coated with zinc. These steel products are widely used in the construction industry for roofing, siding, and other building materials, as well as in the automotive industry for body panels and other components. The output of this industry may also be consumed by manufacturers of 731100 Containers for compressed or liquefied gas, of iron or steel, 732690 Articles of iron or steel, n.e.c. in heading no. 7326, and other industries that require corrosion-resistant steel products.
