Alternative Classifications

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

7604.29.30Lower: 37.6% vs 40%

If designed as hollow T-slot profiles

Hollow cross-sections shift to 7604.29.30 for hollow profiles of alloys.

7308.90Lower: 10% vs 40%

If for industrial use as structural steel-like components

If marketed as finished building structures, may fall under iron/steel Chapter 73 equivalents, though material dictates aluminum.

7606.12Lower: 16.5% vs 40%

If processed into plates or sheets post-extrusion

Cladding or flattening changes to 7606 for clad aluminum plates.

Import Tips & Compliance

Include cross-sectional diagrams in entry docs to prove T-slot shape qualifies as 'other profile', not bar or rod

Certify temper and alloy grade (e.g

6063-T5) to comply with aluminum alloy subheading requirements

Watch for misdeclaration as parts; extrusions alone stay in 7604 unless assembled
