Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If thickness under 5mm
Bronze sheets 0.15-5mm thick classify in separate statistical suffix within same heading.
If refined copper without tin alloying elements
Non-alloyed copper plates over 0.15mm fall under unalloyed copper provisions.
If further worked (e.g., polished or patterned surface)
Surface-worked or clad copper plates shift to Chapter 74 articles heading.
