Overview
This HTS classification, 7616.99.51.70, specifically designates "Forgings" made from aluminum. Forgings are shaped by mechanical force, typically by hammering or pressing heated aluminum, which alters its crystalline structure to enhance strength and durability. This process distinguishes them from other forms of aluminum articles.
It's crucial to differentiate this category from its sibling, 7616.99.51.60, which covers "Castings." Castings are formed by pouring molten aluminum into a mold, resulting in a different internal structure and potentially different mechanical properties compared to forgings. Therefore, the method of manufacturing is the primary distinction between these two categories.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 7616.99.51.70. Classification within this code relies on confirming that the aluminum article in question has undergone a forging process. Examples might include forged aluminum wheels, forged wrenches, or forged components for automotive and aerospace industries where high strength and precision are paramount.
