Alternative Classifications

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

8481.80.30.90Same rate: 40.6%

If not specifically globe type but another hand-operated steel valve

Other hand-operated steel valves excluding globe type fall under the residual 8481.80.30.90 category.

8481.80.90Lower: 37% vs 40.6%

If power-operated rather than hand-operated

Electrically or pneumatically actuated globe valves are classified separately from hand-operated ones.

8481.40.00.00Lower: 37% vs 40.6%

If designed primarily as a safety or relief valve

Globe valves functioning as pressure-relief devices for safety purposes are directed to 8481.40.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify material certification to confirm 100% steel composition, as non-steel parts may shift classification

Include pressure ratings and flow coefficients in documentation to prove hand-operated globe design

Avoid misclassification as gate valves by providing cutaway diagrams showing internal globe disc mechanism
