Cast Iron Turbine Inlet Case from Japan
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.

Import Tips
• 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
