Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If already assembled into complete battery parts
Finished lead-acid battery parts classify under Chapter 85, not raw lead plates.
If unwrought refined lead
Unwrought lead in blocks or pigs precedes processed plates under heading 7801.
If rolled into specific plate thickness
Rolled lead plates have a dedicated subheading separate from unrolled 'other' plates.
