Alternative Classifications

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

8479.89.65.00Lower: 20.3% vs 39.2%

If imported as part of a complete cryogenic distillation plant

Parts of machines for separating air into components fall under 8479 when not standalone heat exchangers.

8419.50.50.00Lower: 35% vs 39.2%

If made primarily of steel rather than aluminum

Steel plate-fin heat exchangers are classified separately from brazed aluminum types.

8419.90.20.00Lower: 35% vs 39.2%

If imported as replacement parts rather than complete units

Parts of heat exchange units have distinct provisions outside the specific brazed aluminum subheading.
