Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If from alloy steel or stainless steel
Ferrous waste from alloy steels falls under the 'other' waste and scrap category in 7204.49.
If in the form of remelting ingots
Processed into ingot form for direct remelting changes classification from raw turnings.
If heavily contaminated with cutting oils or chemicals
Oil-contaminated metal waste may classify as 'other metal waste' outside Chapter 72 scrap.
