Cast Rhodium Ingot Unwrought
Rectangular or trapezoidal ingots of pure rhodium cast from molten metal, intended for remelting without intermediate working. This qualifies as unwrought under HTS 7110.31.00.00, as it lacks deformation like rolling or forging.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If extruded or drawn into wire-like profiles
Any mechanical working into bars, rods, or profiles makes it semimanufactured.
If alloyed with <2% platinum or other PGMs
Chapter note 5 treats low-platinum alloys as other precious metal unwrought forms.
If in granular form for electrical contacts
End-use as articles of electrical machinery may shift classification under Chapter 85.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit melting certificates confirming no hot-working or mechanical shaping occurred
• Label with exact fineness (e.g
• 99.95% rhodium) to comply with precious metal definitions
• Watch for reclassification if ingots exceed standard sizes resembling profiles
Related Products under HTS 7110.31.00.00
Unwrought Rhodium Bar
A solid bar of pure rhodium in unwrought form, produced directly from refining processes without further shaping or fabrication. It falls under HTS 7110.31.00.00 as unwrought rhodium, which is rhodium not processed into plates, sheets, strips, or other semimanufactured shapes.
Rhodium Sponge Unwrought
Porous rhodium sponge obtained from chemical precipitation, remaining in its raw, unwrought state prior to melting or powdering. Classified under HTS 7110.31.00.00 as unwrought rhodium, distinct from powder due to not meeting the 0.5mm sieve test.
Rhodium Grain Unwrought Form
Coarse grains of rhodium from electrolysis or precipitation, not finely divided into powder. Classified in HTS 7110.31.00.00 for unwrought rhodium used in alloying and catalysis.
Electrolytic Rhodium Unwrought
Dendritic rhodium crystals from electrolytic refining, supplied in raw cathode form without consolidation. This unwrought material is under HTS 7110.31.00.00 for rhodium not in powder or worked state.
Refined Rhodium Slab Unwrought
Flat slabs of rhodium from continuous casting, maintained in unwrought condition for remelting into alloys. HTS 7110.31.00.00 applies as slabs lack profile or dimensional working.
High-Purity Rhodium Lump
Irregular lumps of 99.99% pure rhodium from fusion processes, supplied unwrought for investment or fabrication. Classifies under HTS 7110.31.00.00 excluding powder or worked forms.
