Products classified under Tariff item 8109.39.00.00
Zirconium Borings
Zirconium borings are fine drill chips and residues generated during the machining of zirconium components, particularly in nuclear reactor fabrication. These materials are classified as waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00 because they are not usable as finished articles and do not meet the definitions of unwrought zirconium or other specific forms.
8109.39.00Zirconium Clipping Waste
Zirconium clipping waste consists of sheared offcuts from zirconium sheet stock used in heat exchanger production. These clippings are not usable as sheets and are classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00, distinct from unwrought zirconium or finished articles.
8109.39.00Zirconium EDM Wire Scrap
Zirconium EDM wire scrap is spent wire remnants from electrical discharge machining of zirconium molds. This fine wire waste is classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00, supporting recycling in tool-and-die operations due to its precision-grade zirconium content.
8109.39.00Zirconium Fabrication Dust
Zirconium fabrication dust is fine particulate collected from sanding and polishing zirconium anodes in electroplating lines. This dust is classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00 and requires explosion-proof handling due to its fine particle size and reactive nature.
8109.39.00Zirconium Filing Scrap
Zirconium filing scrap consists of fine filings from hand-finishing zirconium tubes for medical implants. These small-particle residues are classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00, and their high purity makes them suitable for biomedical recycling.
8109.39.00Zirconium Grinding Swarf
Zirconium grinding swarf is abrasive-laden waste from surface grinding zirconium billets for turbine blades. This contaminated waste and scrap is classified under tariff item 8109.39.00 and requires cleaning before remelting to recover the zirconium.
8109.39.00Zirconium Lathe Scrap
Zirconium lathe scrap includes continuous chips from lathe turning zirconium pump shafts for corrosive environments. These coiled residues are classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00 and are excellent for direct arc remelt furnaces.
8109.39.00Zirconium Machining Scrap
Zirconium machining scrap is a mix of clippings, turnings, and filings from CNC machining of zirconium alloy parts for chemical processing equipment. This other category of waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00 covers industrial fabrication residues.
8109.39.00Zirconium Mill Scale Scrap
Zirconium mill scale scrap consists of oxide flakes from hot rolling zirconium strips for cladding. These scale layers, separated during pickling, are classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00 and offer high recovery yield post-reduction.
8109.39.00Zirconium NDT Reject Scrap
Zirconium NDT reject scrap includes quality rejects from non-destructive testing of zirconium billets, fragmented for scrap. These flawed semi-products are classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00, with full traceability maintained.
8109.39.00Zirconium Plasma Cut Scrap
Zirconium plasma cut scrap consists of dross and edge beads from plasma arc cutting zirconium heat shields. These oxidized cutting residues are classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00 and are a staple in aerospace recycling.
8109.39.00Zirconium Reactor Scrap
Zirconium reactor scrap comprises decommissioned scraps from zirconium cladding in nuclear fuel rods, categorized as other waste under tariff item 8109.39.00. Its low hafnium content makes it prime for reprocessing into fresh cladding, but strict radiological controls apply.
8109.39.00Zirconium Tooling Scrap
Zirconium tooling scrap includes broken dies and punches from zirconium extrusion tooling, classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00 when no longer serviceable. The refractory properties of zirconium aid in forge recycling.
8109.39.00Zirconium Turnings
Zirconium turnings are fine shavings generated from machining zirconium bars or rods in aerospace manufacturing. These are classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00, excluding unwrought zirconium and other specific forms.
8109.39.00Zirconium Waterjet Scrap
Zirconium waterjet scrap consists of kerf scraps from abrasive waterjet cutting zirconium armor plate. This wet garnet-mixed waste is classified as other waste and scrap under tariff item 8109.39.00, with defense-grade recovery potential.
