Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If alloy tool steel composition
U.S. note (e) tool steel flat products classify under alloy steel headings.
If cut to length as finished shim stock
Machinery accessory parts like shims classify under transmission components.
If not true wire but flat-rolled coil
Semi-finished flat-rolled products precede wire drawing in HTS structure.
