Alternative Classifications

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

7304.29.50Same rate: 35%

If outside diameter exceeds 114.3 mm

Tubing with OD >114.3mm but same wall thickness classifies under adjacent 7304.29.5035 subheading.

8431.43.80.90Same rate: 35%

If imported pre-assembled as part of drilling rig equipment

When supplied as components of complete drilling machines, may classify under parts of oil/gas drilling machinery in 8431.

7304.19.10.20Same rate: 35%

If wall thickness ≤9.5 mm

Thinner wall tubing of same material and OD falls under 7304.19 for lighter wall oilfield tubing.

Import Tips & Compliance

Include detailed dimensional certificates and hydrostatic test results per API standards to confirm classification parameters

Label with exact grade (e.g

L-80 equivalent nonalloy) to distinguish from alloy steels; avoid generic 'steel tubing' descriptions

Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain origins; declare melt-and-pour country accurately on entry documents
