Alternative Classifications

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

7407Same rate: 36%

If zinc ≥1% by weight

Zn predominant over other elements defines copper-zinc base alloys (brasses).

7604.29.10Higher: 40% vs 36%

If aluminum-copper composite

Clad aluminum-copper profiles classify under aluminum Chapter 76.

8302.41.90Higher: 38.5% vs 36%

If made into base metal mountings

Finished mountings/fittings become Chapter 83 articles.
