Metallurgical Coke Lump
Lump metallurgical coke produced from coking coal, used primarily in blast furnaces for iron production. It falls under HTS 2704.00.00.25 as coke and semicoke of coal, other than specific types like coke breeze. Agglomerated form enhances its strength for high-temperature applications.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If sized as coke breeze under 32 mm
Coke breeze, defined as particles smaller than 31.5 mm, is separately classified from larger lump coke.
If imported as raw bituminous coal for on-site coking
Unprocessed bituminous coal falls under Chapter 27 heading 2701 before conversion to coke.
If petroleum-derived coke
Petroleum coke, not coal coke, is classified under subheading 2713.12 for coke from petroleum oils.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify coke origin and production method (e.g
• beehive oven vs. byproduct) with lab tests for volatile matter to confirm classification
• Obtain certificates of analysis showing it's coal-derived coke, not petroleum coke, to avoid misclassification
