Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for injection molding of glass rather than compression
Injection-specific glass molds have a separate statistical breakout within the same heading.
If for metal foundry use instead of glass
Molds for casting metals like aluminum shift to the metal foundry molds category.
If the mold itself is made of ceramic or refractory material for retail sale
Standalone ceramic labware or crucibles classify under ceramic articles, not machinery molds.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure molds meet refractory material standards for high-temperature glass processing to pass customs inspection
• Provide proof of compression mechanism (e.g
• plunger specs) to distinguish from press-and-blow types
