Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If low-carbon ferro-manganese
Ferro-manganese pigs with significant iron content classify under iron alloys in Chapter 72.
If containing ash or slag residues
Residues from manganese production with impurities fall under Chapter 26 mineral wastes.
If pre-formed into steel addition sets
Pigs sold as part of steel tube sets for industrial use shift to tubes/pipes classification.
