Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If aluminum pole without leveling geophysical features
Basic aluminum poles classify under Chapter 76 rather than instrument accessories.
If for electrical gas/liquid property testing
Supports for non-geophysical electrical meters fall under Chapter 90.
If imported with height-adjustable furniture features
Tripod/monopod hybrids resembling office or display stands enter Chapter 94.
