Zirconium Electrical Contacts from Germany
Zirconium electrical contacts are rivets and contact points made of zirconium for high-reliability switches and electrical equipment. They are classified under tariff item 8109.99.00 as other articles of zirconium, as they are not covered by the specific forms in Chapter 81 and are not parts of general use (which are excluded by Section XV Note 2).

Import Tips
• Verify that the contacts are not classifiable as parts of general use under Section XV Note 2 (e.g
• screws, bolts, or springs)
• Provide technical specifications showing the zirconium content and the specific application in electrical equipment
• If the contacts are part of a larger electrical appliance, consider whether they should be classified with the appliance under Section XVI
