Cleaned Vapor Turbine Rotor for Cogeneration Plants

A rotor for organic vapor turbines in cogeneration facilities, processed only by cleaning and minimal machining to eliminate sprues, risers, and fins from casting. This semi-finished state permits accurate fixturing for subsequent finishing operations. Classified in 8406.90.60.00 due to restriction to basic preparation without blade attachment or balancing.
