Alternative Classifications

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

7801.10.00.00Lower: 12.5% vs 37.5%

If containing antimony

Antimony-bearing lead specifically heads 7801.10, separate from other alloys.

8548.00.00.00Lower: 35% vs 37.5%

If imported as battery-ready anodes

Finished battery parts or electrodes classify under Chapter 85 electrical machinery.

7204.41.00Lower: 35% vs 37.5%

If iron content predominates

Ferroalloys with iron > lead shift to Chapter 72 iron/steel alloys.
