Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3403.19Lower: 15.8% vs 25%

If post-additization as finished hydraulic fluid

Additives make it a 'lubricating preparation' in Chapter 34.

2710.19.90Higher: 32% vs 25%

If composition doesn't meet ≤50% single HC

Other mixtures without the 50% limit fall into residual 2710.19.90.

Import Tips & Compliance

Specify ISO viscosity grade (e.g

32/46) in invoices for clarity

Bulk tanker imports need coast guard vessel inspection certs

Not 2710.19.20 unless explicitly for engines; hydraulic is general
