Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If blended fuel oils over 125 SUS
Viscosity exceeding range qualifies as heavier No. 6-type residual oils.
If aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures
If >50% aromatics like xylenes, shifts to Chapter 27 aromatics heading.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include generator compatibility specs; wrong viscosity damages turbines and triggers liability
• Periodic entry reporting for large volumes; avoid daily manifests to reduce paperwork
• Check state-specific clean air rules; high sulfur variants may require secondary treatment
