Antimony Alloy Grinding Swarf from Germany
Antimony alloy grinding swarf consists of fine metal particles and coolant sludge generated during the machining of antimony-hardened bearings and bushings. This material is imported for solvent extraction and antimony recovery, and qualifies as waste and scrap under tariff item 8110.20.00 because it is not usable as a finished article.

Import Tips
• Ensure the swarf is classified as waste and scrap, not as a product of another heading, by providing documentation that it is not usable as-is
• Verify the antimony content and declare it accurately to avoid reclassification
• Consult the CBSA's D10 database for the current duty rate, which is typically free for waste and scrap
