Alternative Classifications

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

3816.00.20Higher: 38% vs 35%

If containing significant silica or alumina additives

Products with mixed aggregates beyond pure dolomite fall under other refractory compositions in the same heading but different subheading.

2522.10.00Same rate: 35%

If imported as raw quicklime or calcined dolomite without ramming formulation

Unmixed, calcined dolomite is classified as a raw material under Chapter 25, not as a prepared refractory mix.

6902.20.10Same rate: 35%

If pre-formed into refractory bricks rather than ramming powder

Shaped dolomite refractory products are classified in Chapter 69 as manufactured articles, not loose mixes.
