Subheadings
Products classified under HTS 7204.41.00
Steel Lathe Turnings
Fine spiral shavings produced during lathe machining of carbon steel bars, collected as ferrous waste for remelting. Classified under HTS 7204.41.00 as turnings from mechanical processing of iron or steel products. Not suitable for direct use but ideal for steel recycling furnaces.
Iron Milling Waste Chips
Small fragmented chips generated from milling operations on cast iron parts, used as remelting scrap. Fits HTS 7204.41.00 due to being milling waste from ferrous metals. Commonly recycled in foundries for new iron castings.
Carbon Steel Sawdust from Band Saws
Fine powdery sawdust produced by band saw cutting of carbon steel sheets, categorized as ferrous scrap. Under HTS 7204.41.00 as sawdust from steel processing. High iron content makes it valuable for electric arc furnaces.
Stamping Trimmings from Steel Auto Parts
Irregular metal pieces trimmed during press stamping of steel automotive body panels. HTS 7204.41.00 covers such stampings as ferrous remelting scrap. Clean edges make them premium charge material for steel mills.
Machining Filings from Steel Shafts
Abrasive filings from grinding and filing steel shafts during precision manufacturing. Classified in HTS 7204.41.00 as ferrous filings for scrap recycling. Dense iron content suitable for basic oxygen furnaces.
Bundled Lathe Shavings from Iron Pipes
Compressed bundles of shavings from turning cast iron pipes on CNC lathes. HTS 7204.41.00 explicitly includes bundled turnings/shavings as remelting scrap. Reduces volume for efficient scrap transport.
CNC Milling Chips from Steel Gears
Curly chips ejected during high-speed CNC milling of steel gear blanks. Falls under HTS 7204.41.00 milling waste category for ferrous scrap. Gear industry generates consistent supply for recycling.
Steel Sheet Saw Filings
Mixed filings and dust from circular saw cutting steel sheets for appliances. HTS 7204.41.00 as sawdust/filings from ferrous processing. Fine particle size requires special dust control in recycling.
Press Trimmings from Steel Cans
Skeleton trimmings left after deep drawing steel can bodies in beverage packaging lines. Under HTS 7204.41.00 as stampings/trimmings ferrous scrap. Tin-free steel composition ideal for can grade recycling.
Aluminum-Free Steel Sawdust
Clean sawdust from plasma and mechanical sawing of low-carbon steel plates, segregated for purity. HTS 7204.41.00 for uncontaminated ferrous sawdust. Premium grade for EAF charge due to consistent chemistry.
