Cast Iron Turbine Inlet Case

A cast iron housing that directs airflow into the compressor section of an aircraft turbojet engine. It is cast from iron, cleaned, and minimally machined only to remove casting imperfections and facilitate finishing, fitting HTS 8411.91.10.90 as a part of aircraft turbines not advanced beyond basic preparation. This part ensures efficient air intake under high-speed flight conditions.

Alternative Classifications

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

8411.91.90Same rate: 35%

If machined beyond cleaning and fin removal

Advanced machining for functional tolerances moves it from rough cast parts to finished components.

7325.10.00Same rate: 35%

If for non-aircraft gas turbine applications

Cast iron parts not specifically for turbojets/turbopropellers classify under general iron castings.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify cast iron composition via material certification to confirm Chapter 84 classification over Chapter 73

Provide engine model documentation proving aircraft turbine use to avoid reclassification as ground equipment

Ensure machining is limited to fin/gate removal; excess processing shifts to 8411.91.9045
