Forged Alloy Steel Elbow Fitting
A 90-degree elbow fitting forged from alloy steel (e.g., AISI 4140), not machined or tooled after forging, used for connecting pipes in low-pressure hydraulic systems. It falls under HTS 7307.99.30.00 as a rough-forged tube or pipe fitting of alloy steel (except stainless), meeting the 'not machined, not tooled' criteria from Chapter 73 notes.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If machined or tooled after forging
Post-forging machining (e.g., threading, drilling) moves it to the 'machined' subheading in 7307.99.50.
If made of stainless steel
Stainless steel fittings (over 10.5% chromium) are classified under the specific stainless steel provisions in 7307.23.
If imported as part of an article or for other end uses
If not specifically tube/pipe fittings but other forged steel articles, it falls under Chapter 73 other articles.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify alloy steel composition via mill certificates to confirm exclusion of stainless steel (max 10.5% chromium)
• Declare as 'rough forged' with no post-forging processing; photos or sketches may be required to avoid reclassification
