About iron or steel sheet piling, whether or not drilled, punched or made from assembled elements; welded angles, shapes and sections, of iron or steel

HS code 7301 covers a range of iron and steel products used extensively in construction, infrastructure, and industrial applications. These products, including sheet piling, welded angles, shapes, and sections, are essential components in the development of buildings, bridges, seawalls, and other critical structures. As a key contributor to the global construction industry, this sector plays a vital role in the broader economy, supporting economic growth and development worldwide.

Production process

The production of the items covered under HS code 7301 typically involves a combination of rolling, welding, and fabrication techniques. Steel sheets or plates are first rolled to the desired thickness and shape, then may be drilled, punched, or assembled into larger elements. Welding is a common process used to join the various components, creating sturdy angles, shapes, and sections that can be easily integrated into construction projects.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 7301 items include high-quality steel, either in the form of raw materials or semi-finished products. Specialized rolling and welding equipment, as well as skilled labor, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Depending on the specific application, additional inputs such as fasteners, coatings, or protective treatments may be utilized to enhance the durability and performance of the final products.

Production outputs

The outputs of HS code 7301 are primarily used in the construction and infrastructure sectors, where they are incorporated into a wide range of projects, including buildings, bridges, seawalls, and other critical structures. The welded angles, shapes, and sections may also find applications in the manufacturing of industrial equipment and machinery. The sheet piling products are particularly useful for retaining walls, riverbanks, and coastal defenses. Other HS codes that may consume the outputs of 7301 include 7308 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel and 7216 Angles, shapes and sections of iron or steel.
