Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If made principally of silicon carbide
Material composition change from graphite to silicon-carbide electrodes alters heading.
If imported as granulated/powder form
Unworked natural graphite is classified under mineral products, not electrodes.
If sold assembled with battery cells
Complete battery assemblies including carbon elements fall under electric accumulators.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Label clearly with RP grade, dimensions, and batch number for traceability in furnace operations
• Avoid misdeclaration as battery carbon which has different tariff treatment
• Test for apparent density compliance as low density may indicate improper classification
