Products classified under HTS 7201.10.00.00
Low-Phosphorus Foundry Pig Iron
Pig iron cast in standard pig shapes with 0.5% or less phosphorus content, used primarily for foundry applications to produce castings. It falls under HTS 7201.10.00.00 as nonalloy pig iron in primary forms with low phosphorus for high-quality melting. The low phosphorus ensures minimal brittleness in final cast products.
Basic Oxygen Pig Iron
Pig iron produced via basic oxygen process with ≤0.5% phosphorus, cast in pigs for steelmaking charge. Classified under HTS 7201.10.00.00 due to its nonalloy composition and primary pig form. Low phosphorus suits basic oxygen furnace operations.
Steelworks Low-P Pig Iron
Nonalloy pig iron with max 0.5% phosphorus designed for steel mill blast furnaces, cast in large pigs. HTS 7201.10.00.00 applies to this primary form pig iron meeting the low phosphorus threshold. Used as a hot metal source in steel production.
Blast Furnace Low-Phosphorus Pigs
Pig iron from blast furnaces with controlled ≤0.5% phosphorus, cast into pigs or blocks for resale to steelmakers. HTS 7201.10.00.00 covers this nonalloy primary form. Essential raw material for pig iron-based steelmaking.
Gray Cast Iron Pig Iron
Standard pig iron with 0.5% max phosphorus for gray iron foundries, supplied in pig form. Under HTS 7201.10.00.00 as qualifying nonalloy low-P pig iron. Provides optimal carbon equivalent for flake graphite formation.
Premium Steel Plant Pig Iron
High-quality pig iron ≤0.5% P for premium steel plants, cast in optimized pig shapes. HTS 7201.10.00.00 classification for nonalloy primary pig iron. Tight chemistry control supports high-value steel grades.
Export Grade Low-P Pig Iron
Pig iron prepared for export with certified ≤0.5% phosphorus in standard international pig sizes. Fits HTS 7201.10.00.00 as nonalloy pig iron in primary forms. Commonly traded commodity for global steel supply chains.
Ductile Iron Pig Iron
Low-phosphorus pig iron (≤0.5%) specifically for manufacturing ductile (nodular) iron castings, in standard pig form. Fits HTS 7201.10.00.00 as primary nonalloy pig iron. Low P content prevents cracking during spheroidization treatment.
