Analysis

HTS 2517.10.00 covers pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone, of a kind commonly used for concrete aggregates, for road metalling, or for railway or other ballast, shingle and… under heading 2517 (pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone, of a kind commonly used for concrete…). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 3 ten-digit suffixes, reported in metric tons.

There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 91% of the 78 tariff lines in chapter 25 that are also free. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.

Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 30% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 30% duty.

The other lines in the same group are 2517.20.00 (macadam of slag, dross or similar industrial waste, whether…, duty-free), 2517.30.00 (pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone, of a kind…, duty-free), 2517.41.00 (granules, chippings and powder, of stones of heading 2515…, duty-free) and 2517.49.00 (granules, chippings and powder, of stones of heading 2515…, duty-free).
