Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

6901.00.00.00Same rate: 35%

If made from fused magnesia or chrome-magnesia

Heading 6901 prioritizes basic refractories like magnesia over alumina-silica in 6902.

6903.90.00Same rate: 35%

If for bulk or irregular blocks not qualifying as 'bricks'

Other constructional goods beyond standard bricks fall into 6903.90 residual provision.

8546.10.00.00Higher: 37.9% vs 35%

If fitted as electrical insulators

Chapter note (f) excludes electrical insulators from Chapter 69, directing to Chapter 85.

Import Tips & Compliance

Use ASTM C373 water absorption tests if absorption rate questioned, though primarily composition-driven for refractories

Include manufacturer specs on firing process (>800°C) to comply with Chapter 69 firing requirement
