Products classified under Tariff item 8102.97
Molybdenum Alloy Machining Scrap
Molybdenum alloy machining scrap, specifically turnings from TZM (titanium-zirconium-molybdenum) alloy parts, where molybdenum predominates by weight over each other element. This scrap is classified as waste and scrap of molybdenum under tariff item 8102.97.00, as it is not usable as-is and requires recycling.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Boat Scrap
Crushed remnants of spent molybdenum evaporation boats from vacuum coating operations, with purity of 99.95% after cleaning. These remnants are no longer usable as boats and are collected as recyclable scrap, falling under tariff item 8102.97.00 for waste and scrap of molybdenum.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Crucible Scrap
Broken and worn molybdenum crucibles from rare earth metal casting, collected as scrap. These crucibles are no longer fit for their original purpose and are classified as waste and scrap of molybdenum under tariff item 8102.97.00, given their high-temperature metallurgical grade.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Electrode Scrap
Discarded ends and trimmings from molybdenum electrodes used in glass melting furnaces. This metallurgical-grade waste material is suitable for recycling and is classified as waste and scrap of molybdenum under tariff item 8102.97.00.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Furnace Lining Scrap
Scrap recovered from worn molybdenum furnace linings in high-temperature applications like sapphire crystal growth. After oxidation removal, this molybdenum-containing waste is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap, requiring chemical processing for recycling.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Lighting Filament Scrap
Broken filament mandrels and support wire scrap from halogen lamp manufacturing, with purity of 99.95% molybdenum. This fine wire scrap is recovered from lamp assembly rejects and is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap of molybdenum.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Machining Swarf
Wet or dry swarf from CNC machining of molybdenum components, consisting of metal fines and coolant-contaminated particles. This material is unfit for direct reuse without processing and falls under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap of molybdenum.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Powder Production Scrap
Oversized particles and collector scrap from atomized molybdenum powder manufacturing, not meeting powder size specifications of less than 150 microns. This irregular metal waste is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 and is recycled back into powder production.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Rod End Scrap
Cropped ends from molybdenum rod production for lighting filaments and heating elements, with diameters typically 1-10mm. This clean, high-purity scrap is suitable for remelting and is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap of molybdenum.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Sheet Trimmings Scrap
Edge trimmings and offcuts from molybdenum sheet rolling for heat shields and furnace parts, with thickness of 0.1-2mm and 99.9% purity. This clean scrap is ideal for powder production feedstock and is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Sputtering Target Scrap
Used molybdenum sputtering targets from semiconductor thin-film deposition processes, machined to remove used surfaces. This high-purity scrap (99.99% Mo) is cleaned but not usable as a target and falls under tariff item 8102.97.00 for recycling into new targets.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Turning Scrap
Scrap generated from machining molybdenum rods and bars, consisting of fine metal turnings and chips with high molybdenum content. This material is distinct from unwrought molybdenum and is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Vacuum Furnace Scrap
Assorted molybdenum fixtures, trays, and supports scrapped from vacuum heat treatment furnaces, after disassembly. This high-purity scrap is used in titanium alloy processing and is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap of molybdenum.
8102.97.00Molybdenum Wire Crop Ends Scrap
Short crop ends and rejects from molybdenum wire drawing operations, collected as scrap for remelting. This clean, high-purity waste (98-99.5% Mo) is not suitable as finished wire products and is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00.
8102.97.00Used Molybdenum Heating Elements Scrap
Deformed and oxidized molybdenum disilicide heating elements from laboratory furnaces, stripped of insulation. The molybdenum base metal content is classified under tariff item 8102.97.00 as waste and scrap, common in research and dental labs.
