Products classified under Tariff item 8112.13.00.00
Beryllium EDM Wire Scrap
Spent wire electrodes from electrical discharge machining (EDM) of beryllium molds. These fine, tangled remnants are no longer usable as wire and are classified as beryllium waste and scrap under tariff item 8112.13.00.
8112.13.00Beryllium Grinding Swarf
Fine particles and sludge from grinding beryllium components, used in nuclear applications. This wet or dry swarf is classified as beryllium waste and scrap under tariff item 8112.13.00 and requires special handling due to toxicity.
8112.13.00Beryllium Heat Treatment Scrap
Scale, oxide, and trimmings from annealing beryllium alloys in high-tech furnace operations. This material is classified as beryllium waste and scrap under tariff item 8112.13.00, and while often oxidized, it is recoverable.
8112.13.00Beryllium Laser Cutting Scrap
Kerf and edge trimmings from laser-cut beryllium sheets for defense applications. These clean cuts with minimal contamination are classified as beryllium waste and scrap under tariff item 8112.13.00.
8112.13.00Beryllium Machining Scrap
Waste generated from machining beryllium parts in aerospace manufacturing, consisting of shavings, turnings, and small chips primarily of beryllium metal. This is classified as waste and scrap of beryllium under tariff item 8112.13.00.
8112.13.00Beryllium Precision Parts Scrap
Rejected or obsolete beryllium components from satellite and optics manufacturing, categorized as waste and scrap under tariff item 8112.13.00. These are high purity but irregular shapes unfit for direct use.
8112.13.00Beryllium Prototype Scrap
Discarded test pieces from R&D prototyping of beryllium structures, classified as waste under tariff item 8112.13.00. These irregular shapes result from iterative development and are not suitable for reuse.
8112.13.00Beryllium Stampings Scrap
Punched-out skeletons from stamping beryllium foil for electronics, classified as scrap under tariff item 8112.13.00. These are thin, flat waste sheets with no further use.
8112.13.00Beryllium Tooling Scrap
Discarded fragments from beryllium dies and tools used in electronics fabrication, falling under tariff item 8112.13.00 as beryllium waste and scrap. These are not suitable for remanufacture without refining.
8112.13.00Beryllium Waterjet Scrap
Wet slurry waste from abrasive waterjet cutting of beryllium components, classified as beryllium scrap under tariff item 8112.13.00. This includes garnet abrasive mix but is beryllium dominant.
