4401.32.00Same rate: 35%

If briquettes have cross-section >25mm per definition

Meets precise briquette specs (cubiform units >25mm), distinguishing from general agglomerated shavings.

4401.39Same rate: 35%

If predominantly sawdust/chips rather than shavings

Material composition shifts to sawdust-specific subheading if shavings content is secondary.

2716.00.00Lower: Free vs 35%
