Magnesite Crucible for Metal Melting from Japan
A high-temperature resistant crucible made primarily from magnesite, used in foundries for melting non-ferrous metals. It falls under HTS 6815.91.00.71 because it contains magnesite as the key mineral substance and is not specified elsewhere in Chapter 68. These crucibles provide excellent thermal shock resistance due to their magnesia content.
