Brass Lock and Key Scrap from Mexico
Brass lock and key scrap includes discarded padlocks, door locks, and keys made from copper-zinc alloys with a copper content below 94% by weight. These items are considered waste and scrap because they are no longer functional as locks or keys due to wear or breakage. The copper-zinc base alloy composition qualifies them under tariff item 7404.00.20 for brass scrap.
