Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If in coil form >5kg
Wrought tungsten wire coils over 5kg classify separately under 8101.99.30.
If assembled into complete lamp filament
Finished filaments in lamps move to Chapter 85 as electrical light sources.
If coated with flux for welding electrodes
Flux-coated tungsten electrodes are welding rods under 8311.10.
