About steel, alloy; flat-rolled, width less than 600mm, n.e.c. in item no. 7226.9

HS code 722699 covers a specific category of steel products - alloy steel that is flat-rolled and has a width of less than 600mm. This type of steel is widely used in various industries, including automotive, construction, and machinery manufacturing, due to its unique properties and versatility. As a key component in many industrial applications, the trade and production of these steel products play a significant role in the global economy.

Production process

The production of steel products under HS code 722699 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, including iron ore, coal, and various alloying elements, are melted in a furnace to create the desired steel alloy. The molten steel is then cast into slabs or billets, which are subsequently rolled and processed to achieve the desired thickness and width. Finally, the flat-rolled steel is cut, coated, or further processed as per the specific requirements of the end-user industries.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of steel products under HS code 722699 include iron ore, coal, and various alloying elements such as chromium, nickel, and manganese. Additionally, specialized machinery, such as furnaces, rolling mills, and cutting equipment, are essential for the manufacturing process. Energy sources, such as electricity and natural gas, are also crucial inputs for the production of these steel products.

Production outputs

The steel products classified under HS code 722699 are primarily used as raw materials or intermediate goods in various industries. These steel products may be further processed or incorporated into the manufacturing of 731100 steel containers, 732690 other articles of iron or steel, 840120 steam or other vapor generating boilers, and 840310 central heating boilers, among others. The versatility of these steel products makes them an essential component in the global supply chain.
