CRT Television Picture Tube Cone from Germany
This is the truncated funnel-shaped glass cone component of a cathode-ray tube (CRT) used in older television sets, forming the main body where electron beams converge to create the image on the phosphor-coated screen. It falls under HTS 7011.20.10.00 as an open glass part specifically for cathode-ray tubes, without any fittings. The cone is precision-molded from high-quality glass to withstand vacuum conditions and electron bombardment.

Import Tips
• Verify the glass cone is explicitly for CRT use and lacks fittings to avoid reclassification under 7011.20.2000 or 8539
• Provide detailed technical specs and manufacturer certifications confirming it's a CRT cone, not a finished bulb or tube
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on CRT glass from certain Asian origins; check Commerce Department scopes
