Analysis

Subheading 6902.20 covers containing by weight more than 50 percent of alumina (Al2O3), of silica (SiO2) or of a mixture or compound of these products, within heading 6902. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 2 US tariff lines below it are national.

Every one of its 2 tariff lines is duty-free at the general rate, so classification within the subheading affects statistics and Chapter 99 measures rather than the base duty.

The US splits it as follows: 6902.20.10 for containing by weight more than 50 percent of alumina (Al2O3), of… (duty-free) and 6902.20.50 for containing by weight more than 50 percent of alumina (Al2O3), of… (duty-free).

By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Clay Building Material and Refractories Manufacturing (327120). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
