Alternative Classifications

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

7202.41.00Higher: 26.9% vs 15%

If containing by weight more than 4% free carbon

High free carbon ferrochromium specifically heads to 7202.41, separating it from lower-carbon or blended 'other' ferroalloys.

7202.70.00Lower: 14.5% vs 15%

If also containing 10% or more silicomanganese by weight

Ferrochrome with significant silicomanganese addition qualifies as ferrosilicomanganese under 7202.70.
