Steam Turbine Exhaust Casing Section
Steam turbine exhaust casing sections are low-pressure casing segments that direct exhaust steam to condensers, fabricated from specialized alloys to withstand vacuum conditions. These casings are classified as 'other' parts under tariff item 8406.90.39, as they are not rotors, blades, or other specifically enumerated turbine components.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide the alloy composition and engineering specifications to support classification as a turbine part
• If the casing is imported with other turbine components, consider whether they form a complete machine requiring classification under heading 84.06
• Check if the casing qualifies for duty relief under the Machinery Program or similar CBSA initiatives
