Manganese Steel Scrap
Discarded fragments of high-manganese steel (Hadfield steel) from worn mining and crushing equipment, containing 11-14% manganese. Classified under HTS 8111.00.30.00 as waste and scrap of manganese and articles thereof, due to its primary manganese content exceeding other metals.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If manganese content below 2% and treated as ferrous scrap
Ferrous waste and scrap with low alloy content falls under Chapter 72, not manganese-specific Chapter 81.
If containing copper or other metals above manganese levels
Slags and residues with multiple base metals are classified by principal metal under Chapter 26.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify manganese content via assay certificate to confirm classification under Chapter 81; steel-dominant scrap may shift to Chapter 72
• Provide scrap origin documentation and ensure free of hazardous contaminants like oils or PCBs to avoid EPA scrutiny
