Alternative Classifications

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

7202.50.00.00Same rate: 35%

If Si+Mn >75% as silico-manganese

Standard silico-manganese ferroalloys enter 7202, not pig iron.

7202.21.50.00Higher: 36.5% vs 35%

If dominant silicon content

High-silicon variants classified as ferrosilicon.

7207.20.00Same rate: 35%

If granulated form

Granulated alloy iron under 7207, not pig primary form.

Import Tips & Compliance

Dual alloy certs required showing both Si/Mn levels exceeding single-alloy ferroalloy thresholds

Segregate from pure ferrosilicon or ferromanganese to maintain alloy pig status

Check uniform pig dimensions; oversized may imply different primary form

Related Products under HTS 7201.50.30.00

Ferromanganese Alloy Pig Iron

Pig iron alloyed with high manganese content, cast into pigs for use in steelmaking to add manganese and deoxidize melts. Classified under HTS 7201.50.30.00 as alloy pig iron due to its manganese addition exceeding basic pig iron composition, meeting Chapter 72 definitions for alloyed primary forms.

Ferrosilicon Alloy Pig Iron

Alloy pig iron containing 10-30% silicon, produced in pig form for silicon addition in steel production and deoxidation. Falls under HTS 7201.50.30.00 as spiegeleisen-type alloy pig iron per Chapter 72 notes for alloyed primary castings.

Ferrochrome Alloy Pig Iron

Pig iron alloyed with chromium (5-15%) cast in pig form, used primarily for producing stainless steels. HTS 7201.50.30.00 covers this as alloy pig iron, distinct from high-carbon ferrochrome ferroalloys.

Spiegeleisen Pig Iron

High-manganese spiegeleisen pig iron (20-35% Mn), cast in pigs for mirror-like fracture appearance and steel alloying. Specifically named under HTS 7201.50 as alloy pig iron/spiegeleisen primary form.

Nickel-Bearing Alloy Pig Iron

Pig iron with 2-5% nickel addition, cast into primary pig form for specialty steel and alloy production. Classified HTS 7201.50.30.00 as alloy pig iron due to nickel alloying beyond basic composition.
