Alternative Classifications

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

8481.80.90Lower: 37% vs 38%

If electrically or pneumatically actuated

Non-hand-operated process valves classify under automatic control subheadings.

8481.90.90Lower: 35% vs 38%

If for use as parts in testing apparatus like wafer probers

Parts of Chapter 90 testing equipment take precedence over general valve classification.

7412.20.00Same rate: 38%

If primarily copper tubing with minimal valve function

Copper alloy tube/pipe fittings without full valve mechanism fall under Chapter 74.
