This merchandise is produced from master coils of hot-dipped galvanized high tensile strength steel which conforms to ASTM A653, Quality SQ-Grd 80(550).

The product known as "Durazinc II" is available in 24, 30 or 36 inch widths, while "Durazinc IV" is produced in widths of 24 or 30 inches. After being corrugated, the sheets are then cut to either 8, 10 or 12 feet lengths. They are manufactured in different thicknesses of between .016 to .010 inch. This product is primarily used in roofing applications, but can also be utilized as siding for barns, sheds, etc. The applicable subheading for the corrugated galvanized steel roofing and siding will be 7210.41.00, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for flat-rolled products of iron or nonalloy steel, of a width of 600 mm or more, clad, plated or coated, otherwise plated or coated with zinc, corrugated.
