Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If classified as stainless due to high chromium
High-chromium tool steels may qualify as stainless scrap under separate heading.
If further worked with coatings
Scrap with surface treatments like coatings is excluded per chapter note on 'further worked'.
If carbon content below tool steel threshold
Lower alloy content shifts to non-alloy steel scrap classification.

Our AI classifier can analyze your specific product and recommend the correct HTS code with confidence.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit chemical analysis reports proving tool steel elements (e.g
• >1.2% C, >10.5% Cr) to avoid reclassification
• Comply with ISRI scrap specifications for cleanliness to prevent customs holds
• Watch for bale density requirements; loose turnings may incur additional handling fees
