Alternative Classifications

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

8481.80.90Higher: 37% vs 22.5%

If solenoid or pneumatic operated

Process control valves excluding hand-operated types use other subheadings.

9026.10.60.00Lower: 17.5% vs 22.5%

If for laboratory crystal growth

Lab-scale instruments classify in Chapter 90, not industrial semiconductor machines.

7304.41.30Lower: 17.5% vs 22.5%

If seamless steel tube fitting

Needle-like fittings without true valve mechanism go to steel pipes/tubes.
