Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If constructed from propylene polymers
Polypropylene plumbing fittings are directed to 3917.32 per polymer classification hierarchy in Chapter 39 notes
If featuring metal reinforcement for threaded connections
Fittings with significant metal components may classify as pipe fittings of iron/steel in Chapter 73
If imported in bulk for industrial assembly, not retail plumbing
Unfinished or component PVC articles for further manufacture shift to other articles of plastics
