Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If from punchings or n.e.s. categories
Punching scrap from structural plate has specific statistical breakout.
If containing stainless steel elements
Stainless structural scrap moves to stainless waste provisions.
If identifiable crane parts remain assembled
Machinery parts retain Chapter 84 classification until fully scrapped.
