Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the steel is corrugated
Corrugated sheets with aluminum-zinc coating may be classified here if the corrugation is the primary feature.
If the sheets have an additional organic coating
Sheets with a paint layer over the metallic coating may fall under this item.

55% Al-Zn Alloy Coated Prepainted Steel
Prepainted flat-rolled steel, over 600 mm wide, first coated with a 55% aluminum-zinc alloy and then an organic paint layer. The aluminum-zinc coating is the primary metallic coating, so the product falls under tariff item 7210.61.00, which covers flat-rolled non-alloy steel plated or coated with aluminum-zinc alloys. The organic topcoat does not change the classification because it is applied after the metallic coating and does not alter the base metal's essential character.
