Wafer Crystal Grinder Abrasive Wheels from Mexico
Diamond-impregnated grinding wheels for crystal grinders that shape semiconductor boules to precise diameters before wafer slicing, as defined in statistical notes for semiconductor processing. Used on silicon or gallium arsenide crystals. HTS 8474.90.0020 includes these as parts of grinding machines for mineral substances like semiconductor crystals.

Import Tips
• Reference statistical note (a)(ii)(A) crystal grinders in documentation
• Grit size and bond type specs prove semiconductor boule application
• Cleanroom packaging required to prevent contamination claims
