Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If intended for cast iron ingots instead of steel
Separate provisions exist within 8454.20 for ingot molds specific to cast iron.
If made primarily of cast iron and not specialized for ingots
Other cast iron articles for metallurgy may shift to Chapter 73 if not true ingot molds.
If parts of concrete mixing machinery if repurposed
End-use in non-metallurgical casting changes heading to 8474.
