Thallium Metal Ingots
Pure thallium metal ingots used in the production of low-melting alloys and electronics. These ingots are unwrought forms of thallium, but the tariff item 8112.59.00 covers 'other' articles of thallium, excluding unwrought forms, which are classified under a separate tariff item.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the ingots are unwrought thallium
Unwrought thallium is classified under a separate tariff item within the same heading, distinct from 'other' articles.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm whether the ingots are considered unwrought thallium, which falls under a different tariff item, or if they are 'other' articles under 8112.59.00
• Provide documentation on the ingots' purity and intended use to support classification
• Be aware of potential import restrictions or permits required for thallium due to its toxicity

Thallium Alloy Wire
Thallium alloy wire, specifically a thallium-lead alloy, used in specialized solders for high-tech applications. This product is classified as 'other' articles of thallium under tariff item 8112.59.00, as it is a fabricated article rather than unwrought metal or waste.
Thallium Calibration Weights
Precision-machined thallium weights used for density calibration in metrology laboratories. These are fabricated articles of thallium, not covered by other specific headings, and thus fall under tariff item 8112.59.00 as 'other' thallium articles.
Thallium-Doped Glass Rods
Thallium-doped glass rods used in scintillator applications for radiation detectors. The rods derive their principal value from the thallium metal content, which classifies them as articles of thallium under tariff item 8112.59.00, rather than as glass products.
Thallium Evaporation Pellets
Small pellets of thallium used for vacuum evaporation in thin-film deposition processes for optics and semiconductors. These pellets are fabricated articles of thallium, distinct from unwrought forms, and are classified under tariff item 8112.59.00 as 'other' thallium articles.
