Alternative Classifications

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

7306.40.10Same rate: 35%

If containing 5% or more molybdenum

Higher Mo content (≥5%) moves to adjacent subheading 7306.40.1015 with potentially different rates.

8419.90.10.00Same rate: 35%

If imported as finished heat exchanger parts

Tube assemblies for heat exchangers classify as parts of machinery under 8419, not raw tubes.

7307.19.30Higher: 40.6% vs 35%

If non-circular cross-section

Square or rectangular profiles fall under 7306.60 or tube fittings in 7307.

Import Tips & Compliance

Request supplier chemical analysis certificates; U.S

Customs often tests Mo content randomly

Label as 'capillary tubing' not 'wire' to prevent Chapter 72 misclassification
