Alternative Classifications

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

7409.90.10Higher: 38% vs 36.7%

If tin content 3%+ making it bronze alloy

Per note (b), higher tin shifts to copper-tin base alloy (bronze) subheading

7208.90Lower: 10% vs 36.7%

If clad with other metals

Metal-clad copper alloy sheets classify under iron/steel chapter when steel predominates

7407Lower: 11.6% vs 36.7%

If thickness ≤0.15mm

Thinner copper alloy sheets/strips have separate tariff provisions
