Lead-Antimony Alloy Ingots

Unwrought ingots composed primarily of lead alloyed with antimony, used in battery manufacturing and cable sheathing. Classified under HTS 7801.99.90.50 as other unwrought lead alloys where lead content is less than 99% but not less than any other element. Meets chapter definition for lead alloys in primary form, not refined.

Alternative Classifications

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

7801.91.00.00Same rate: 37.5%

If refined purity exceeds 99% lead

Refined lead (99%+ purity) falls under 7801.91, excluding alloys per statistical note.

2620.99Lower: 10% vs 37.5%

If derived from smelter by-products or residues

Lead residues or dross from processing classify as slag/ash in Chapter 26, not primary unwrought metal.

7804Lower: 10% vs 37.5%

If processed into lead sheets or plates

Once rolled or worked into sheets, it becomes Chapter 78 worked products, not unwrought.

Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Verify lead content via certified assay reports to confirm alloy status under chapter notes (lead <99% but predominant)

โ€ข Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) for hazardous classification and EPA compliance on lead imports

โ€ข Avoid misclassification as scrap by providing proof of primary production origin
