Products classified under HTS 7205.10.00.00
Spiegeleisen Granules
Granules of spiegeleisen, a high-manganese pig iron alloy used in steelmaking to add manganese content. Produced by crushing cast spiegeleisen into 2-8mm granules. HTS 7205.10.00.00 covers granules of spiegeleisen explicitly in the heading.
Iron Granules for Sintering
Atomized pure iron granules (3-10mm) for sintering in powder metallurgy to produce machine parts. Classified as granules of iron under HTS 7205.10.00.00, excluding further worked surfaces. Ideal for high-purity structural components.
Low-Carbon Steel Granules
Granules of low-carbon steel (<0.25% C), sized 2-6mm, for remelting and alloying in secondary steel production. HTS 7205.10.00.00 applies to steel granules not meeting high-strength or tool steel definitions. Common in electric arc furnace feeds.
Atomized Iron Granules 4-8mm
Water-atomized iron granules 4-8mm for heavy media separation in mineral processing. Pure iron composition, classified under HTS 7205.10.00.00 as iron granules. Recyclable and high-density for density-based sorting.
Ferrous Alloy Granules
Granules of ferrous alloys not meeting tool steel specs, 1-4mm, for specialty steel production. HTS 7205.10.00.00 covers such steel granules per heading scope. Used in nitriding and surface hardening processes.
Pig Iron Granules
Granules of pig iron, typically produced by atomization or crushing, used as a raw material in metal casting and steelmaking. Classified under HTS 7205.10.00.00 as granules of pig iron, distinct from powders due to larger particle size. Meets chapter definitions for pig iron products in granular form.
Steel Granules 1-5mm
Granular steel particles sized 1-5mm, made from low-carbon steel scrap via granulation for use in powder metallurgy and sintering. Falls under HTS 7205.10.00.00 as granules of steel, not further worked per chapter notes. Commonly used in automotive part manufacturing.
