HDPE Catch Basin Frame
A square or rectangular frame molded from high-density polyethylene for supporting grates over stormwater catch basins in urban drainage systems. Falls under HTS 3926.90.99.40 due to its specific function as a frame for catch basins, made from plastics of headings 3901-3914. Anchors securely to concrete curbs for erosion resistance.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for frames lacking specific catch basin compatibility
General plastic frames without drainage-specific design move to the broader 'other' subheading.
If constructed from metal alloys
Metal frames for drainage structures classify under Chapter 73 structures of iron/steel.
If supplied as rigid PVC reservoirs rather than frames
PVC reservoirs for catch basins may fall under reservoirs/tanks if holding water capacity.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include installation specs and AASHTO load class certifications to support classification
• Label with polymer content (e.g
• >95% HDPE per subheading note (a)(1)) to avoid copolymer disputes
• Watch for reclassification if frames include integrated grates, potentially treated as sets
