7115.10.00.00 - Catalysts in the form of wire cloth or grill, of platinum

This HTS classification covers catalysts specifically manufactured from platinum, taking the form of wire cloth or grills. These articles are characterized by their open mesh structure, which facilitates their function as catalytic converters in various industrial processes. The defining element for this classification is the material composition, exclusively platinum, and its specific physical form as wire cloth or grill.

This category is distinct from its sibling, 7115.90 "Other," by its specific material and form. While 7115.90 encompasses other articles of precious metal or of metal clad with precious metal that do not fit the precise description of platinum wire cloth or grill catalysts, this heading is narrowly defined for those specific catalytic components.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 7115.10.00.00 hinges on the definitive identification of the article as a platinum catalyst presented in the form of wire cloth or grill. If an article is made of platinum but is not in this specific format, or is a catalyst made from a different precious metal, it would fall under a different classification.
