Alternative Classifications

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

7304.90.50.00Same rate: 17.5%

If wall thickness less than 4 mm

Thinner walls move to 7304.90.50 subheading for alloy steel seamless tubes.

7307.19.30Higher: 40.6% vs 17.5%

If threaded or coupled ends

Tube fittings with threads classify under 7307 as pipe fittings.

7304.19.50Higher: 35% vs 17.5%

If not qualifying as alloy steel

Insufficient alloy elements defaults to carbon steel thick-walled seamless.
