About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS classification, 6902.90.50.20, covers refractory ceramic constructional goods that do not fall under the specifically enumerated types within heading 6902. These are items designed to withstand high temperatures and are used in furnace linings, kilns, incinerators, and other high-temperature industrial applications, but are not primarily composed of siliceous fossil meals or similar siliceous earths. The "Other" designation signifies a residual category for such refractory articles when they are not classifiable elsewhere in the heading based on specific material composition or form.

The key distinction for this category lies in its exclusion of other more specifically defined subcategories within heading 6902. For instance, this code would not apply to refractory bricks, blocks, tiles, or similar goods that are predominantly made of clay (6902.90.50.10). This "Other" category is reserved for refractory ceramic constructional goods that may be made from a variety of refractory materials other than clay, or composite materials, that are not explicitly called out in other subcategories.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, precise classification into 6902.90.50.20 relies heavily on the absence of specific material compositions outlined in sibling categories and its intended use as a refractory constructional article. Importers and exporters should carefully examine the material composition and intended application of their refractory ceramic goods to ensure correct classification, particularly when the goods do not neatly fit into more defined categories within heading 6902.
