Alternative Classifications

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

7305.11.10Same rate: 35%

If welded longitudinally

Welded line pipe of iron/nonalloy steel shifts to Chapter 73 heading 7305.

7304.29Lower: 10% vs 35%

If alloy steel with min 0.3% molybdenum

Presence of alloying elements meeting Chapter 72 note thresholds moves to alloy subheadings.

7306.19Lower: 10% vs 35%

If imported for well completion

End-use as production tubing in oil/gas wells classifies under 7306.19, not transport lines.
