Products classified under HTS 2710.19.11.08
No. 2 Fuel Oil High Sulfur
A light distillate fuel oil classified under HTS 2710.19.11.08 due to its API gravity of 25 degrees or more, Saybolt Universal viscosity at 37.8°C less than 45 seconds, and sulfur content exceeding 500 ppm. It is primarily used for heating and industrial boilers where high sulfur variants are permitted. This meets the criteria for Fuel Oils Nos. 2 and 3 as non-crude petroleum oils with over 70% petroleum content.
No. 2 Diesel Fuel High Sulfur
High sulfur variant of No. 2 distillate used as diesel fuel in off-road or legacy applications, falling under HTS 2710.19.11.08 for its light fuel oil properties: API ≥25°, viscosity <45 sec, and >500 ppm sulfur. It serves as a blended petroleum product >70% oils from bituminous minerals, not biodiesel or waste.
Blended No. 3 Fuel Oil High Sulfur
A blended light residual fuel oil No. 3 with >500 ppm sulfur, API ≥25°, and low viscosity <45 sec at 37.8°C, precisely matching HTS 2710.19.11.08 criteria for high sulfur Nos. 2 and 3 fuel oils. Used in commercial heating systems tolerant of sulfur emissions.
High Sulfur Home Heating Oil No. 2
Distillate No. 2 heating oil for residential furnaces with sulfur >500 ppm, classified in HTS 2710.19.11.08 due to light fuel oil parameters (API ≥25°, visc <45 sec). Excludes biodiesel blends; >70% petroleum oils.
Industrial Boiler Fuel Oil No. 2-GS
Grade No. 2-GS (General Sulfur) fuel for industrial boilers, with sulfur exceeding 500 ppm, fitting HTS 2710.19.11.08 as a light distillate: visc <45 sec, API ≥25°. High petroleum content preparation.
Off-Road High Sulfur Diesel Blend
Blended distillate for off-highway diesel engines with >500 ppm sulfur, under HTS 2710.19.11.08 for No. 2/3 light fuel oils (visc <45 sec, API ≥25°). Non-biodiesel, >70% petroleum.
No. 2 Marine Fuel Oil High Sulfur
Light marine distillate No. 2 fuel with sulfur >500 ppm for auxiliary engines, classified HTS 2710.19.11.08: API ≥25°, low visc, non-IMO low-sulfur grade.
