Alternative Classifications

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

7326.90.86Lower: 37.9% vs 39.2%

If steel backing predominates with thin coating

Thin-coated steel plates become 'other steel articles' of 7326.

8431.49.90Lower: 35% vs 39.2%

If custom-cut for specific conveyor machinery

Parts identifiable for specific machinery go to machine chapters.

6909Lower: 14% vs 39.2%

If fully sintered ceramic without steel backing

Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Document carbide layer thickness vs backing; thick overlays stay in 2849

β€’ Avoid classifying as steel articles; carbide is essential character

β€’ May face Section XV steel safeguard measures regardless
