Zirconium Turnings
Fine shavings or turnings generated from machining zirconium bars or rods in aerospace manufacturing. Classified under HTS 8109.39.00.00 as zirconium waste and scrap, specifically 'other' forms excluding unwrought zirconium. This scrap material is collected for recycling into new zirconium products.
Zirconium Borings
Drill borings and chips from zirconium components used in nuclear reactor fabrication. This 'other' waste and scrap under HTS 8109.39.00.00 captures manufacturing residues not fitting specific wrought or unwrought categories. Recyclers melt these for ingot production.
Zirconium Machining Scrap
Mixed clippings, turnings, and filings from CNC machining of zirconium alloy parts for chemical processing equipment. HTS 8109.39.00.00 covers this 'other' category of zirconium waste and scrap from industrial fabrication. Ideal for remelting in secondary production.
Zirconium Filing Scrap
Fine filings from hand-finishing zirconium tubes for medical implants. As 'other' waste and scrap in HTS 8109.39.00.00, this captures small-particle residues from fabrication. High purity suits biomedical recycling.
Zirconium Clipping Waste
Sheared clippings from zirconium sheet stock used in heat exchanger production. Falls under HTS 8109.39.00.00 as other zirconium waste and scrap, distinct from unwrought or finished articles. Recovered for efficient material recovery.
Zirconium Grinding Swarf
