Hot-Rolled Stainless Steel L-Angle 50x50x5mm

A hot-rolled L-shaped angle bar made of stainless steel with a maximum cross-sectional dimension of 50 mm, used in structural framing and machinery guards. It falls under HTS 7222.40.30.85 as a hot-rolled angle shape of stainless steel, not drilled, punched, or further advanced beyond rolling, with cross-section under 80 mm. This classification applies to basic structural sections per Chapter 72 notes.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7222.30.00Same rate: 35%

If cold-formed or finished

Cold-rolled or further worked angles shift to 7222.30 as they exceed basic hot-rolled processing per Chapter 72 'further worked' definition.

7308.90Lower: 10% vs 35%

If assembled into structures or used in assemblies

When fabricated into built-up sections or frameworks, classification moves to Chapter 73 as structures of iron/steel rather than primary shapes.

7222.40.60Same rate: 35%

If maximum cross-sectional dimension 80mm or greater

Larger structural sections over 80mm fall under separate subheading 7222.40.60 within the same hot-rolled category.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify stainless steel composition via mill test certificate to confirm Chapter 72 classification; ensure no further working like polishing disqualifies from hot-rolled category

Declare exact cross-sectional dimensions accurately to avoid reclassification

Watch for rust/discoloration—no duty allowance per Chapter notes
