Products classified under Tariff item 7112.99.00
Gold Alloy Casting Scrap
Gold alloy casting scrap consists of sprues, gates, and defective castings generated during the manufacture of gold jewelry. These materials are remeltable and are imported primarily for the recovery of gold through refining processes. As waste and scrap of precious metal, they are classified under tariff item 7112.99.00.
Gold Dental Scrap
Gold dental scrap comprises discarded dental restorations, such as crowns and bridges, that contain gold alloys. This material is imported for the recovery of gold through refining, as it is no longer suitable for its original dental use. It falls under tariff item 7112.99.00 as waste and scrap of precious metal.
Gold-Plated Connector Pins Scrap
Gold-plated connector pins scrap consists of base metal pins from decommissioned electronics that have been mechanically clad with a layer of gold. The gold cladding qualifies as metal clad with precious metal under Chapter 71 Note 7. Imported for gold recovery, this scrap falls under tariff item 7112.99.00 as other waste and scrap of precious metal.
Mixed Precious Metal Sweeps
Mixed precious metal sweeps are floor sweepings and shop dust collected from jewelry workshops, containing trace amounts of gold, silver, and platinum alloys. These materials are imported for the recovery of precious metals through refining. Under Chapter 71 Note 5, alloys are classified by the predominant precious metal, and this waste falls under tariff item 7112.99.00 as other waste and scrap.
Palladium Electronic Contact Scrap
Palladium electronic contact scrap consists of electrical contacts from switches and relays that are alloyed with palladium. These contacts are collected for the recovery of palladium through refining processes. As waste and scrap of precious metal, this material is classified under tariff item 7112.99.00.
Platinum Catalytic Converter Scrap
Platinum catalytic converter scrap comprises used catalytic converters from vehicles that contain platinum group metals, such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium. These converters are collected for the recovery of precious metals through refining. The scrap falls under tariff item 7112.99.00 as other waste and scrap of precious metal.
Platinum Thermocouple Wire Scrap
Platinum thermocouple wire scrap consists of discarded platinum-rhodium thermocouple wires used in industrial sensors. These wires are imported for the reclamation of platinum and rhodium through refining. As waste and scrap of precious metal, they are classified under tariff item 7112.99.00.
Rhodium Plating Bath Sludge
Rhodium plating bath sludge is settled material from electroplating baths that contains rhodium compounds. This sludge is imported principally for the recovery of rhodium through refining processes. It falls under tariff item 7112.99.00 as other waste and scrap containing precious metal.
Silver Jewelry Manufacturing Scrap
Silver jewelry manufacturing scrap consists of trimmings and filings generated during the production of silver jewelry. These materials contain at least 2% silver by weight and are destined for refining to recover the silver. Under Chapter 71 Note 5(c), alloys with 2% or more silver are treated as silver alloys, and this scrap falls under tariff item 7112.99.00.
Silver X-Ray Film Scrap
Silver x-ray film scrap consists of processed x-ray films with silver halide emulsions that have been stripped for silver recovery. These films are imported for the extraction of silver through refining processes. As waste and scrap containing precious metal, this material falls under tariff item 7112.99.00.
