Lead-Antimony Alloy Ingots
Ingots composed primarily of lead with antimony alloying elements, used in battery manufacturing and cable sheathing. Classified under HTS 7801.99.90 as unwrought lead alloys where lead content is less than 99% but the highest among metals, not refined or primary lead. This falls into 'Other' as it doesn't match specific alloy exclusions.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If contaminated or unfit for animal consumption but recyclable
Recovered lead alloys or residues classified as lead waste or scrap under heading 7802.
If processed into battery plates or components
Wrought or semi-manufactured lead products for batteries shift to Chapter 85 electrical machinery.
If shaped into bars, rods, or profiles
Lead alloys in wrought forms like bars are under heading 7806, not unwrought.

Import Tips & Compliance
โข Verify alloy composition via certified assay reports to confirm lead is the predominant metal under 99% weight
โข Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) for hazardous lead content to comply with EPA and customs regulations
โข Avoid misclassification as scrap (7802) by ensuring product is unwrought and suitable for further processing
