Products classified under HTS 2710.20.10.03
Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel No. 2
A light distillate fuel oil classified as No. 2 diesel with sulfur content between 15 and 500 ppm, testing 25 degrees A.P.I. or more and Saybolt Universal viscosity under 45 seconds at 37.8°C. It falls under HTS 2710.20.10.03 due to its specific sulfur limits, API gravity, and viscosity matching the subheading for diesel fuel oils containing biodiesel. Used primarily for on-road vehicles compliant with EPA standards.
B5 Biodiesel Blend Diesel Fuel
A No. 2 diesel fuel blended with 5% biodiesel (B5), sulfur 20-400 ppm, API gravity >25°, viscosity <45 SUS. Classified in 2710.20.10.03 for its low sulfur diesel specs and biodiesel inclusion as basic constituent. Meets standards for highway diesel engines.
B20 Diesel Biodiesel Blend Low Sulfur
20% biodiesel (B20) blended No. 2 diesel fuel with 30 ppm sulfur, viscosity <45 SUS, API >25°. Classified under 2710.20.10.03 for low-sulfur diesel with biodiesel as basic constituent. Suitable for fleet vehicles with compatible engines.
Heating Oil No. 2 with Biodiesel
No. 2 heating oil blended with biodiesel, sulfur 100 ppm, API 28-35°, <45 SUS viscosity. Falls under 2710.20.10.03 as low-sulfur diesel-like fuel oil with biodiesel. Used in residential and commercial boilers.
Low-Sulfur No. 3 Diesel Fuel Oil
No. 3 diesel oil with 100-450 ppm sulfur, light viscosity <45 SUS at 37.8°C, API ≥25°, containing biodiesel blend. Fits HTS 2710.20.10.03 as Fuel Oil No. 3 diesel per hierarchy specs. Used in medium-speed engines and some off-road applications.
On-Road ULSD with 50 ppm Sulfur
Highway-compliant ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) No. 2 with exactly 50 ppm sulfur, biodiesel-infused, light fuel specs. HTS 2710.20.10.03 applies due to sulfur range, biodiesel presence, and physical properties. Standard for U.S. diesel vehicles post-2006.
Marine Auxiliary Low-Sulfur Diesel
Low-sulfur No. 2 diesel for marine auxiliary engines, 200 ppm S, biodiesel blend, light fuel properties. HTS 2710.20.10.03 due to sulfur limits and distillate specs. Compliant with some VLSFO requirements.
