Annealed CR Steel Coil for Home Appliance Housings
Cold-rolled nonalloy steel coil measuring 2.0 mm thick and 1,200 mm wide, annealed for enhanced ductility used in refrigerator and washer exteriors. Classified under HTS 7209.16.00.70 for its cold-rolled, annealed state in coils, thickness 1-3 mm, without cladding or coating. The annealing process relieves internal stresses from cold reduction.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If thickness 3 mm or more
Thicker cold-rolled coils enter the next thickness band under the same cold-rolled, annealed subcategory.
If clad with another material
Cladding excludes products from 7209, redirecting to heading 7210 for clad/plated flat-rolled steel.
If alloy steel composition
Products with specified alloying elements per Chapter 72 notes (e.g., >10% Cr) classify under Chapter 72 alloy steel headings.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include annealing furnace logs and hardness test results (typically Rockwell B 60-75) to substantiate classification
• Declare surface condition accurately; minor pickling before annealing doesn't constitute 'further worked' but document to avoid disputes
• Check for Section 232 tariffs on steel; obtain licenses if applicable for nonalloy imports
