Products classified under HTS 7207.12.00.50
Low-Carbon Steel Billets for Forging
Rectangular semifinished steel products with less than 0.25% carbon, featuring a width at least four times the thickness, used as feedstock for forging operations. Classified under HTS 7207.12.0050 as semifinished products of nonalloy steel with rectangular cross section meeting the specified dimensional ratio. These are not further worked beyond basic rolling.
Nonalloy Steel Slabs for Pipe Manufacturing
Semifinished rectangular steel slabs under 0.25% carbon with width at least four times thickness, primarily for seamless pipe production. Fits HTS 7207.12.0050 due to rectangular shape and dimensional criteria for nonalloy iron or steel semifinished products. Supplied in as-rolled condition without advanced processing.
Rectangular Steel Blooms for Heavy Machinery
Low-carbon (<0.25%) rectangular blooms with width ≥4x thickness, used in manufacturing large machinery components. HTS 7207.12.0050 classification applies to these semifinished nonalloy steel products with specified rectangular dimensions. Not considered 'further worked' under chapter definitions.
Steel Semifinished Rectangular Sections for Rolling Mills
Nonalloy steel sections under 0.25% carbon, rectangular with width at least four times thickness, serving as input for hot rolling mills. Precisely matches HTS 7207.12.0050 for semifinished products meeting dimensional and composition criteria. Delivered in raw rolled state.
Low Carbon Steel Blocks for Structural Shapes
Rectangular steel blocks <0.25% carbon designed for I-beam and structural shape production, width ≥4x thickness. Classifies under HTS 7207.12.0050 as qualifying semifinished nonalloy steel product. Meets chapter requirements for rectangular cross section without further working.
Rectangular Semifinished Steel for Automotive Pressing
Nonalloy rectangular steel <0.25% carbon with 4:1 width-to-thickness ratio minimum, used for automotive body pressing stock. HTS 7207.12.0050 covers these semifinished products meeting exact physical specifications. Raw condition excludes further worked treatments.
Steel Semifinished Rectangles for Shipbuilding
Low carbon rectangular semifinished steel (width ≥4x thickness) for ship plate production, containing <0.25% carbon. Directly classified HTS 7207.12.0050 as nonalloy semifinished product with required cross section. Standard rolling mill product without surface treatments.
