Products classified under HTS 7112.92.01.00
Platinum Jewelry Manufacturing Scrap
Waste trimmings and filings generated during the crafting of platinum rings, bracelets, and necklaces in jewelry workshops. Classified under HTS 7112.92.0100 as scrap of platinum used principally for precious metal recovery, excluding sweepings with other metals. It consists primarily of pure platinum shavings without base metal cladding beyond the platinum layer.
Platinum Dental Alloy Scrap
Scrap from melted-down platinum-based dental crowns and bridges, predominantly platinum by weight per chapter note 5(a). Falls under HTS 7112.92.0100 as platinum scrap for recovery, metal clad with platinum excluded only if base metal predominates. Used by refiners to reclaim high-purity platinum.
Spent Platinum Crucible Fragments
Cracked and deformed platinum laboratory crucibles discarded after high-temperature use, purely platinum without cladding. HTS 7112.92.0100 applies as platinum scrap principally for metal recovery, common in chemical and metallurgy labs.
Platinum Electroplating Rack Scrap
Worn titanium racks metal clad with platinum plating, where platinum layer predominates for recovery purposes. Classified in HTS 7112.92.0100 per chapter note 7 including metal clad with platinum, excluding other metal sweepings.
