99.999% Pure Bismuth Shot
Small spherical pellets of bismuth metal with 99.999% purity, ideal for precision alloying in fusible plugs and low-melt applications. This unwrought, high-purity bismuth content exceeds the 99.99% threshold specified in tariff item 8106.10.00.
Bismuth Master Alloy Billet 99.99%+
A billet form of nearly pure bismuth (>99.99%) used as a master alloy base in metallurgy for diluting other alloys. It qualifies as unwrought bismuth meeting the exact purity specification, not as an alloy since bismuth predominates by weight.
High-Purity Bismuth Metal Ingot
A cast ingot of bismuth metal refined to exceed 99.99% purity by weight, used primarily in alloys and electronics manufacturing. This unwrought form falls under tariff item 8106.10.00 due to its exceptional bismuth content.
Pharmaceutical Bismuth Powder 99.99%
Fine powder of >99.99% bismuth for use in pharmaceutical intermediates and contrast agents. This high-purity unwrought powder is specifically covered by tariff item 8106.10.00 due to its metal content exceeding the chapter's purity threshold.
Research-Grade Bismuth Foil 99.995%
Thin foil sheets of 99.995% pure bismuth for scientific research in superconductivity and thin-film applications. Though processed into foil, its primary form and >99.99% purity keep it under tariff item 8106.10.00 for high-purity bismuth.
Ultra-Pure Bismuth Granules
Granular bismuth metal at >99.99% purity, supplied for laboratory and pharmaceutical synthesis where minimal impurities are critical. This form is unwrought and directly matches tariff item 8106.10.00 for its defined high bismuth content.
