Ferrochrome Alloy Pig Iron from United States
Ferrochrome alloy pig iron is pig iron alloyed with chromium (5-15% by weight), cast in pig form and used primarily as an additive in stainless steel production. It is classified as alloy pig iron under this tariff item because its chromium content exceeds the 0.2% threshold set out in subheading note 1(a) of Chapter 72, and it is presented in a primary form (pigs) rather than as a ferro-alloy.
