Low-E Coated Float Glass Sheet 6mm Thick 1m²

This is float glass that has been surface polished and coated with a low-emissivity (low-E) layer to reflect infrared light while maintaining transparency, used primarily for energy-efficient windows. It measures 6mm in thickness and over 0.65 m² in area, classifying under HTS 7005.29.18 as non-wired float glass with a reflecting layer, not otherwise worked beyond polishing and coating. Cutting to shape does not affect its sheet classification per chapter notes.

Alternative Classifications

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

7005.10Lower: 14.4% vs 35%

If wired glass

Wired glass (with wire mesh embedding for safety) falls under 7005.10 regardless of thickness or area.

7007.19.00Higher: 40% vs 35%

If safety glass (tempered or laminated)

If the float glass undergoes toughening, laminating, or other safety processes, it moves to heading 7007 for safety glass.

7006.00.40Higher: 39.9% vs 35%

If cut to shape and edges worked

Chapter note (b) keeps sheets under 7005 if only cut to shape, but ground/polished edges classify as 'otherwise worked' in 7006.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify the low-E coating qualifies as a 'reflecting layer' per chapter note (c) with documentation on metal oxide composition to avoid reclassification

Measure sheet area precisely (>0.65 m²) and thickness (<10mm) before import; provide mill test certificates for glass composition and surface treatment
