Import Tips & Compliance
• Classify the muffle as a furnace part under 8417.90.00, ensuring it is not described as a standalone refractory article
• Provide specifications showing its high-temperature resistance and use in annealing furnaces
• Confirm with CBSA if the muffle's material (e.g
• ceramic, quartz) affects classification
