Halon-1211 Fire Extinguishing Gas Cylinder
This product is technical grade bromochlorodifluoromethane (Halon-1211) filled in returnable steel cylinders. The compound itself is a separate chemically defined organic compound, and the cylinder is merely a container, so the goods remain classifiable under tariff item 2903.76.00 as the named Halon-1211.
