Alternative Classifications

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

6902.20.10Same rate: 35%

If made from chromite or magnesite with clay binders

Primary material shifts to specific refractory compositions like chromite, changing the subheading within refractory bricks.

6806.20.00Same rate: 35%

If for non-refractory clay construction bricks

Articles not meeting refractory heat resistance standards are classified as general clay building materials in Chapter 68.

6903.20.00Same rate: 35%

If containing >50% alumina or silica

High-alumina or siliceous clay compositions exceed clay purity limits and fall under 'other refractory ceramic goods'.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify firing temperature exceeds 800°C with manufacturer certificates to confirm Chapter 69 eligibility; unfired clay products fall outside this chapter

Provide detailed composition reports showing clay as primary ingredient (>50%) to avoid misclassification under siliceous earth headings

Include end-use documentation proving refractory application to distinguish from building materials in Chapter 68
