Analysis
Subheading 7606.11 covers of aluminum, not alloyed, within heading 7606. 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.
None of its 2 lines is duty-free at the general rate. Rates run from 2.7% to 3% with a median of 2.85%, so the line you choose sets the duty.
The US splits it as follows: 7606.11.30 for of aluminum, not alloyed: not clad (3%) and 7606.11.60 for of aluminum, not alloyed: clad (2.7%).
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Aluminum Sheet, Plate, and Foil Manufacturing (331315). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
Goods only reach 7606.11 once they fall within heading 7606 (aluminum plates, sheets and strip, of a thickness exceeding 0.2 mm). Under General Rule 6, subheadings are then compared only with others at the same level, so a product is matched against its siblings, not against lines elsewhere in the chapter.
