Magnesium Turnings 1-3mm Grade
Magnesium turnings produced from machining operations, graded to 1-3mm particle size for metallurgical applications. Classified under HTS 8104.30.00.00 as magnesium turnings graded according to size, distinct from ungraded scrap in 8104.20. These are used in remelting and alloy production.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not graded by size
Ungraded magnesium raspings, turnings, or granules fall under the waste and scrap heading 8104.20.
If chemically processed into powder for chemical use
Processed magnesium powders for non-metallurgical chemical applications may classify as chemical preparations.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify particle size grading with sieve analysis certificates to distinguish from ungraded scrap under 8104.20
• Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) due to magnesium's flammability risks during transport
• Ensure purity documentation (>99% magnesium) to avoid reclassification as alloys in Chapter 81
