Alternative Classifications

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

8477.51.00Higher: 38.1% vs 35%

If marketed for silicone plastic molding instead of sheeting

Synthetic rubber processing machines may shift to 8477.51 if functioning as reaction injection equipment.

8480.20.00.00Higher: 38.4% vs 35%

If for replacement molding rolls only

Individual cylinders for rubber machinery classify under 8480.20 as parts of calendering equipment.

8420.99.90.00Same rate: 35%

If imported as parts or incomplete machines

Other parts of rolling machines not cylinders go to 8420.99 if not complete calenders.
