Silicon Wafer Lapping Stationary Turbine Blades from Canada
Stationary blades in steam turbine-driven lappers that flatten silicon wafer surfaces to nanometer tolerances post-slicing for semiconductor fabrication. They guide lapping plates for ultimate flatness. Under HTS 8406.90.40.00 as stationary parts of steam turbines in wafer preparation equipment.

Import Tips
• Provide flatness tolerance data (e.g
• <1 micron) linking to semiconductor standards
• Avoid bulk packaging that suggests tool status; ship as assembled turbine components
• Ensure no confusion with polishing pads classified under 6804 or 5910
