Overview
This HTS classification, 7202.29.00.50, encompasses "Other" ferrosilicon. It specifically covers ferrosilicon alloys that do not meet the criteria for other more specific subheadings within the ferrosilicon category. The primary characteristic of goods under this heading is their composition as alloys of iron and silicon, produced by smelting iron ores and silicon-containing materials.
This classification serves as a residual category for ferrosilicon that does not fall under the sibling category 7202.29.00.10, which is reserved for ferrosilicon containing by weight over 2 percent of magnesium. Therefore, this "Other" category would include ferrosilicon with 2 percent or less of magnesium, or ferrosilicon where the magnesium content is not a distinguishing factor for classification purposes.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 7202.29.00.50 is determined by exclusion from other specified ferrosilicon classifications, with particular attention paid to the precise chemical composition and any specified alloying elements or impurities that might warrant a different classification.
