Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If machined beyond basic cleaning for finishing placement
Parts advanced beyond minimal machining for location fall under 'other' cast-iron parts in 8409.91.50.
If not specifically for spark-ignition engines of 8407/8408
General cast-iron engine parts not principally for those headings classify in Chapter 73 as castings.
If supplied as complete motor vehicle engine part
Finished or assembled parts for motor vehicles go to Chapter 87, not machinery parts.
