Alternative Classifications

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

7202.21Lower: 15.8% vs 35%

If silicon content is 65-75% by weight

Ferrosilicon with lower silicon levels (max 75%) falls under the specific 7202.21 subheading rather than 'other' ferrosilicon.

7202.30.00.00Lower: 28.9% vs 35%

If containing both silicon and manganese

Ferrosilicomanganese, a different ferroalloy composition, is classified separately under 7202.30.
