Products classified under HTS 7204.49.00.40
No. 2 HMS Industrial Machinery Casting Scrap
Heavy steel castings from failed industrial machinery components, processed to standard No. 2 heavy melting dimensions. Fits 7204.49.00.40 as specified remelting scrap without deformations beyond size limits.
No. 2 Heavy Melting Steel Scrap (Bundled)
Bundles of mixed iron and steel scrap consisting of new black steel sheet and plates, structural shapes, and black steel castings up to 36 inches in any outside dimension, with a minimum 1/4 inch thickness and maximum 18 inches in any outside dimension. Classified under HTS 7204.49.00.40 as No. 2 heavy melting scrap due to its specific size, thickness, and composition standards for remelting purposes.
No. 2 HMS Steel Structural Shapes Scrap
Heavy melting scrap from demolished steel beams, channels, and angles, cut to 18-inch maximum dimensions and at least 1/4 inch thick, primarily low-alloy carbon steel. Fits HTS 7204.49.00.40 as standard No. 2 heavy melting scrap for electric arc furnace remelting.
No. 2 Heavy Melting Black Steel Plate Scrap
Scrap from uncoated black steel plates used in shipbuilding, cut to required dimensions (1/4-18 inches), free of sheet clippings or galvanized material. HTS 7204.49.00.40 applies as it matches the precise definition of No. 2 heavy melting ferrous scrap.
No. 2 HMS Cast Steel Piping Scrap
Heavy melting scrap from cast steel pipes and fittings from industrial piping systems, prepared to No. 2 specs with no attachments. Classified under 7204.49.00.40 for remelting scrap ingots due to conforming size and heavy section requirements.
