Alternative Classifications

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

8413.81.00Same rate: 35%

If of cast iron construction

Material-specific classification applies to certain concrete pumps, but stock pumps of cast iron may qualify here instead.

8413.91.90Same rate: 35%

If for use in non-cellulosic processes

Without the specific end-use for pulp/paperboard, it defaults to other parts of stock pumps.

8479.89Lower: 12.5% vs 35%

If sold as part of a complete pulp preparation set

Machinery parts not elsewhere specified could apply if bundled with other pulp processing components.

Import Tips & Compliance

Include manufacturer's declaration specifying compatibility with cellulosic pulp or paperboard machines to meet import requirements

Check for proper labeling of wetted parts materials; acidic pulp environments require specific alloys to prevent premature failure

Avoid common error of importing without proof of end-use, leading to higher general duty rates
