Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If fabricated into needles
Knives/blades/needles of base metal classify under 8208 interchange tools.
If over 0.6% carbon
Higher carbon for harder needles uses subsequent statistical breakout.
If ball-bearing steel
Precision grades meeting U.S. Note (h) ball-bearing steel go to alloy 7228.80.
