Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2524.90.00Same rate: 25%

If fluff or flock grade

Less processed fluff chrysotile classifies separately from precisely milled group 3 spinning fibers.

5911.90.00Higher: 38.8% vs 25%

If spun into textile fabric coating

Fibers converted to coated textiles for technical uses fall under Chapter 59 as textile products coated with asbestos.

2530.90Lower: 10% vs 25%

If mixed with mineral earths

Blends with non-asbestos minerals like talc may classify under 2530 as mineral substances if asbestos content drops below principal material.
