Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as a complete centrifuge rather than a part
Complete centrifuges are classified under heading 84.21, subheading 8421.19.
If the bowl is a simple fabricated stainless steel article not identifiable as a centrifuge part
Other articles of iron or steel are classified in heading 73.26 when not parts of machines.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Classify the bowl as a part of a centrifuge, not as a filtering apparatus, to ensure correct duty application
• Keep records of the centrifuge model it is designed for, as CBSA may request proof of exclusivity
• Check if the bowl is eligible for duty remission under specific semiconductor manufacturing programs
