A sample of this product was submitted to the New York Laboratory.

The applicable subheading for the calcium silicon barium ferroalloy will be 7202.99.8040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for ferroyalloys, other, other, other, other. The rate of duty will be 5%.
