HY-80 High-Strength Alloy Steel Plate from China
HY-80 nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel plate, hot-rolled, thickness 4.75 mm or more, width exceeding 600 mm, not in coils, no further working. Although high-strength, it falls under HTS 7225.40.30 'other' as it doesn't precisely match the Chapter 72 high-strength steel definition for yield point. Used in naval shipbuilding and heavy structural applications.

Import Tips
• Test and certify yield strength does not meet exact high-strength steel thresholds (275 MPa for <3mm or 355 MPa for ≥3mm) to remain in 'other'
• Include heat analysis reports showing alloy content excluding tool steel or ball-bearing steel compositions
• For defense end-use, expect ITAR/DFARS documentation beyond standard HTS entry
