Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported with airship structure
Aircraft ground handling equipment includes gas systems as parts.
If non-aviation grade
Standard purity helium without FAA specs falls under general 'other'.
If anti-knock additive treated
Fuel additives containing helium classify in Chapter 38, not elements.
