Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8109Same rate: 38.7%

If hafnium content exceeds 1 part per 500 parts zirconium

Higher hafnium variants fall under the residual 'other' subheading 8109.90.00, often nuclear-grade.

7225.11.00Lower: 35% vs 38.7%

If alloyed as zirconium-clad steel strip

Clad products with steel base primarily steel under Chapter 72, not pure zirconium articles.

8486.90.00Lower: 25% vs 38.7%

If machined into finished semiconductor parts

Fully fabricated semiconductor manufacturing equipment parts shift to Chapter 84/85 machinery headings.

Import Tips & Compliance

Provide spectrographic analysis confirming hafnium levels to prevent misclassification as higher-hafnium nuclear material

Label shipments clearly as 'commercial grade zirconium' with ASTM B551 specs to aid CBP review
