Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If in form of tungsten-containing scrap from alloys
Metal-bearing waste/scrap of tungsten classifies under Chapter 81 heading.
If byproduct of niobium-tantalum ore with tungsten impurities
Specific ore processing residues take precedence over general slag.
If chemically treated as industrial waste mixture
Processed chemical residues may fall under prepared binders/waste mixes.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include particle size and composition assays to confirm 'mainly tungsten' status
• Verify non-municipal origin with production process certificates

Tungsten Smelting Slag
Residue from the smelting process of tungsten ores, primarily consisting of tungsten compounds and minor metal impurities. Classified under HTS 2620.99.20.00 as slag containing mainly tungsten, used in industry for metal recovery or chemical manufacturing. Excludes iron/steel production residues.
Tungsten Carbide Production Ash
Ash residue generated during the manufacture of tungsten carbide tools, rich in tungsten compounds. Falls under HTS 2620.99.20.00 due to its primary tungsten content and use in recovering metals for chemical compounds. Not from iron/steel making.
