Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as whole scrapped transformers
Static converters/parts remain in Chapter 85 until dismantled to copper scrap.
If alloyed windings (e.g., admiralty brass)
Specific alloy scrap subheadings per subheading note compositions.
If remelted into refined copper billets
Semi-finished refined copper products exclude waste classification.
