About aluminium; structures (excluding prefabricated buildings of heading no. 9406) and parts (e.g. bridges and sections, towers, lattice masts, etc) plates, rods, profiles and tubes for structures

HS code 7610 covers a diverse range of aluminium-based structural components and parts used in various construction and engineering applications. This industry plays a crucial role in the global economy, providing essential materials for the development of infrastructure, buildings, and other vital structures. The versatility and durability of aluminium make it a preferred choice for a wide range of projects, from bridges and towers to lattice masts and other architectural elements.

Production process

The production of the items covered under HS code 7610 typically involves a combination of casting, extrusion, and fabrication techniques. Aluminium is first smelted and cast into ingots or billets, which are then extruded into the desired shapes and profiles. These components are then further processed, such as by cutting, bending, or welding, to create the final structural elements and parts.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 7610 items include raw aluminium, as well as various tools, machinery, and energy sources necessary for the casting, extrusion, and fabrication processes. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled labor, engineering expertise, and access to transportation networks to ensure the efficient delivery of materials to construction and engineering projects.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the HS code 7610 industry are a wide range of aluminium structural components and parts, such as bridges, towers, lattice masts, and other architectural elements. These outputs are often consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, including 8401 Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof, 8502 Electric generating sets and rotary converters, and 9406 Prefabricated buildings.
