Cermet Tipped Rock Drill Bit

A rotary drill bit designed for rock drilling in mining operations, featuring a working part made of cermets for superior hardness and wear resistance. Classified under HTS 8207.13.00.00 because the cutting or abrading edge is composed of cermets, distinguishing it from other rock drilling tools with different materials. Ideal for hard rock formations where durability is critical.

Alternative Classifications

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

8207.19.60Lower: 37.9% vs 38.6%

If working part is of sintered metal carbide

Cermets are distinct from sintered carbides; tools with carbide tips classify under 8207.19 for similar rock drilling applications.

8430.49.80Lower: 35% vs 38.6%

If imported as part of a complete drilling rig

Assembled into machinery for earth boring, shifting to Chapter 84 for other parts of boring machines.

6804.21.00Lower: 35% vs 38.6%

If primarily of agglomerated synthetic diamond

Millstones and grinding wheels with diamond working parts fall under Chapter 68, not base metal tools.
