Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7210.70Lower: 10% vs 35%

If prepaint applied over chromium oxide

Paint coating constitutes 'further worked' per Chapter 72 notes.

7210.11.00Same rate: 35%

If tin coated instead

Tin mill products use specific 7210.11 for tin coatings.

7208.53.00Same rate: 35%

If hot-rolled with same coating

Process route (hot vs cold) determines primary heading.
