Hot-Rolled 304 Stainless Steel Plate 3.5mm Thick from China

Hot-rolled stainless steel plate made from 304 grade alloy, measuring 3.5 mm in thickness and over 600 mm in width, not in coils and not further worked beyond hot-rolling. It falls under HTS 7219.23.00 due to its specific thickness range (3-4.75 mm), stainless steel composition, and lack of additional processing like cold-rolling or coating. Commonly used in industrial fabrication for its corrosion resistance.

Import Tips

Verify exact thickness measurement as it determines subheading within 7219; provide mill test certificates confirming stainless steel grade and hot-rolled status

Watch for 'further worked' treatments like polishing that shift classification to 7219.13 or Chapter 73
