Subheadings
Products classified under HTS 2710.12.45
Petroleum-Based Cutting Oil Mixture
A lubricant mixture containing over 70% petroleum oils with no single hydrocarbon exceeding 50% by weight, used in metalworking machinery. Classified under HTS 2710.12.45 as light oils and preparations that are mixtures of hydrocarbons not elsewhere specified. It meets the criteria for light oils distilling primarily below 210°C and serves as a basic constituent in industrial preparations.
Industrial Solvent Blend 2710
A multi-hydrocarbon solvent mixture derived from petroleum, with 75% oils and balanced hydrocarbons under 50% each, used for degreasing machinery. Falls under HTS 2710.12.45 due to being light oils not specified elsewhere with the required mixture composition. Primarily distills below 210°C, qualifying as light preparations.
Petroleum Distillate Cleaning Mixture
Light petroleum distillate blend for industrial cleaning, comprising 72% petroleum oils with diverse hydrocarbons none over 50%. HTS 2710.12.45 applies as it's a light oil preparation not elsewhere specified, meeting distillation and composition tests. Used in manufacturing for parts washing.
Multi-Component Hydraulic Fluid Base
Base oil mixture for hydraulic systems, 78% petroleum with hydrocarbons balanced below 50% each by weight. Classified in HTS 2710.12.45 as unspecified light hydrocarbon mixtures serving as preparation bases. Distills sufficiently light for the subheading.
Specialty Paint Thinner Blend
Hydrocarbon mixture thinner for industrial paints, over 70% petroleum oils with no hydrocarbon over 50%. HTS 2710.12.45 covers this as light oil mixtures not specified elsewhere. Meets volume distillation at 210°C for light classification.
