Chromium Metal Ingots
Pure chromium metal cast into ingots, used primarily in metallurgical applications for alloy production. Classified under HTS 8112.21.00.00 as unwrought chromium, which includes forms like ingots not further processed into sheets or wires. This excludes wrought forms like bars or rods.
High-Purity Chromium Powder
Fine chromium powder with purity levels above 99.9%, utilized in powder metallurgy and coating applications. Falls under HTS 8112.21.00.00 for unwrought chromium powders, encompassing atomized or chemically reduced forms not shaped into articles.
Chromium Billets
Cylindrical unwrought chromium billets produced by electron beam melting for aerospace alloys. HTS 8112.21.00.00 covers these semi-processed unwrought forms prior to hot working into rods or sheets.
Vacuum Arc Remelted Chromium
Chromium refined via vacuum arc remelting for ultra-high purity in superalloys. Remains unwrought under HTS 8112.21.00.00 as cast electrodes or lumps not mechanically worked.
Chromium Master Alloy Ingots
Unwrought ingots of nearly pure chromium used to introduce element into steel melts. Still under HTS 8112.21.00.00 if chromium content exceeds 99% per Chapter 81 alloy note.
Distilled Chromium Metal Lumps
Lump chromium produced by distillation for electronics-grade purity. Unwrought lumps classify under HTS 8112.21.00.00, not shaped into profiles.
