Products classified under HTS 4403.91.00.20
Red Oak Logs for Lumber Production
Rough-cut red oak logs (Quercus rubra) sourced from North American forests, typically 12-24 inches in diameter, stripped of bark but not further processed. Classified under HTS 4403.91.0020 as 'wood in the rough' of red oak species, not squared or machined beyond initial harvesting.
Rough Red Oak Timber for Furniture Making
Unprocessed red oak timber blocks from Quercus rubra, bark-removed and roughly squared on two faces for stability during transport. Fits HTS 4403.91.0020 as rough wood of red oak, prior to kiln-drying or planing.
Rough Red Oak Billets for Tool Handles
Short-length red oak (Quercus rubra) billets, bark-free and roughly hewn for axe and tool handle production. Remains under HTS 4403.91.0020 as in-the-rough state, pre-shaping.
Bark-On Red Oak Stumps for Veneer
Harvested red oak stumps (Quercus rubra) with bark intact, destined for rotary veneer peeling after import. HTS 4403.91.0020 covers this minimally processed rough wood form.
Rough-Squared Red Oak Flitches
Red oak flitches (Quercus rubra) with two faces roughly adzed for lumber yield optimization, still qualifying as 'in the rough.' Precise fit for HTS 4403.91.0020 oak subheading.
Red Oak Rough Cuttings for Flooring
Irregular red oak cuttings from Quercus rubra milling, bark-stripped but unsurfaced for wide-plank flooring blanks. HTS 4403.91.0020 designation for rough state.
Debarked Red Oak Butt Logs
Lower trunk sections of red oak trees (Quercus rubra), mechanically debarked for highest quality lumber yield. Classed under HTS 4403.91.0020 as rough oak wood.
Red Oak Rough Wood for Barrel Staves
Quercus rubra rough blocks selected for tight grain, ideal for whiskey barrel stave production post-import quarter-sawing. HTS 4403.91.0020 for unprocessed form.
Red Oak Firewood Rounds in Rough State
Cut red oak rounds (Quercus spp. red varieties) from felled trees, bark partially stripped, intended for eventual splitting into firewood. Qualifies for HTS 4403.91.0020 as wood in the rough, not processed beyond basic cutting.
Unstripped Red Oak Poles for Fencing
Naturally debarked red oak poles from Quercus rubra, cut to 8-12 foot lengths with minimal sapwood removal for fencing posts. HTS 4403.91.0020 applies to this rough, unsquared utility wood.
