Ferrovanadium Alloy from Canada
Ferrovanadium is an iron-vanadium alloy containing less than 99% vanadium by weight, used primarily as an additive in steel production to enhance strength and toughness. It falls under HTS 8112.99.2000 as vanadium classified in 'other' articles of these base metals, excluding pure vanadium or waste/scrap. This alloy meets Chapter 81 definitions for vanadium alloys where vanadium is the predominant base metal.

Import Tips
• Verify alloy composition via certified assay reports to confirm vanadium content <99% but highest among metals, avoiding misclassification as pure vanadium
• Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) for hazardous handling; ensure compliance with TSCA for chemical substances
