Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If marketed primarily as compressor or turbine lubricant
Specific end-use lubricants have dedicated subheadings separate from general greases.
If predominantly synthetic base without ≥70% petroleum oils
Lubricants based on synthetic oils rather than petroleum shift to Chapter 34 preparations.
If containing biodiesel additives
Any biodiesel content excludes from 2710.19.35 and moves to biodiesel-containing oils.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include ISO viscosity and NLGI grade certifications to support grease classification
• Test for fatty acid salt composition if using any bio-based additives to stay under 10%
• Declare as 'lubricating grease' on entry docs, not 'lubricant' to avoid hydraulic oil confusion
