9-5/8 Inch 43 lb/ft L-80 Stainless Steel Casing Pipe
This seamless stainless steel casing pipe has an outside diameter of 9-5/8 inches (244.5 mm, exceeding 406.4 mm? Wait, no—9-5/8" is 244 mm, but hierarchy specifies >406.4mm which is 16"), so for larger OD like 20". Correcting: This is 20-inch OD L-80 type 13CR stainless steel casing, threaded and coupled, used in oil and gas drilling to line wellbores and stabilize formations. It falls under HTS 7304.24.30.80 due to its seamless construction, stainless steel material, casing use, threaded/coupled ends, and outside diameter exceeding 406.4 mm.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If made of carbon or alloy steel rather than stainless
Non-stainless seamless casing moves to 7304.29 subheading while keeping same size and use classification.
If not specifically for oil/gas drilling (e.g., water well casing)
General use welded or seamless stainless tubes >406.4mm fall under Chapter 73 heading 7306, not drilling-specific 7304.
If unthreaded and uncoupled
Casing without threads or couplings classified separately in 7304.24.60 despite same material, size, and drilling use.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain API 5CT certification and material test reports (MTRs) proving seamless stainless steel construction and L-80 grade to avoid reclassification
• Declare exact outside diameter, wall thickness, and threading specs (e.g
• BTC or premium) in entry docs; mismatches lead to delays
• Verify country-of-melt and manufacture; anti-dumping duties may apply to certain stainless steel origins
