00:00:02.600 --> 00:00:06.721
Good afternoon,
I am Chrissi Guth with CBP's Office of

b05d1c6a-0be2-4a3b-a8a7-d94c664e47a0-1
00:00:06.721 --> 00:00:07.920
Trade Relations.

a3de443a-2334-484a-a191-2a2c45f0b572-0
00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:15.640
Today's webinar is on Going with the Flow:
Pipes, Tubes, and Hollow Profiles.

9329a2f2-482d-4ec4-9f65-ef63ba11d9c2-0
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:22.960
This webinar is part of the NCSD's 2025
webinar series.

7a7f3737-6fc5-40ac-bf99-3b00c75ce00d-0
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:27.080
Please be mindful that you will be on
mute during the presentation.

41f1d705-bc21-45b1-be13-8b23a0b98f39-0
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:29.690
Therefore,
we ask that you please submit any

41f1d705-bc21-45b1-be13-8b23a0b98f39-1
00:00:29.690 --> 00:00:31.640
questions you have in the chat feature.

e53c472d-b018-4887-b701-197fdf06b082-0
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:38.963
If you plan to request the CBP Continuing
Education credits,

e53c472d-b018-4887-b701-197fdf06b082-1
00:00:38.963 --> 00:00:47.256
it will be provided in the chat box at
the end of the webinar, spoken aloud, and

e53c472d-b018-4887-b701-197fdf06b082-2
00:00:47.256 --> 00:00:54.080
on the last slide of the presentation at
the end of the webinar.

6fd2d9fc-0dcd-4383-969a-460f17599731-0
00:00:55.640 --> 00:01:00.920
Now I would like to pass it over to
National Import Specialist, Angie Amerson.

305d1dfb-c5b5-46ca-aedd-6f700ab4806e-0
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:05.880
Thank you, Chrissi.

44a629b5-eb9d-44ed-aca3-d5d8ed93ccff-0
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:13.431
Good afternoon to the East Coast and good
morning to the West Coast and welcome to

44a629b5-eb9d-44ed-aca3-d5d8ed93ccff-1
00:01:13.431 --> 00:01:19.080
my webinar called Going with the Flow:
Pipes, Tubes, and Hollow Profiles.

c7c3300f-3bd2-40f4-9548-17738bd168bd-0
00:01:19.800 --> 00:01:23.457
As Chrissi said,
my name is Angie Amerson and I am

c7c3300f-3bd2-40f4-9548-17738bd168bd-1
00:01:23.457 --> 00:01:25.680
National Import Specialist 116.

c0c488fa-1ed9-4ad3-8e51-1541aa8f9169-0
00:01:26.520 --> 00:01:30.600
So let's go ahead and get the legalities
out of the way and then we'll get started.

a425b423-8656-4e0d-b2e1-976d20e790f4-0
00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:40.349
Many people don't realize that the Office
of Trade has a separate mission statement

a425b423-8656-4e0d-b2e1-976d20e790f4-1
00:01:40.349 --> 00:01:42.840
that expands on CBP's mission statement.

c8f45fcd-8ac0-42c9-bd0d-5400955c7450-0
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:46.772
As you can see,
it protects the American economy and also

c8f45fcd-8ac0-42c9-bd0d-5400955c7450-1
00:01:46.772 --> 00:01:50.160
creates a level playing field for
American businesses.

00:01:52.360 --> 00:01:56.619
This presentation is for general
information purposes only and it is

48d1e9f1-00e9-427f-ba04-9ef30bc8ed95-1
00:01:56.619 --> 00:02:01.125
intended to provide guidance and
information regarding the understanding

48d1e9f1-00e9-427f-ba04-9ef30bc8ed95-2
00:02:01.125 --> 00:02:04.520
of and compliance with importing laws and
regulations.

72925255-33ac-4950-be17-baa14ce551bb-1
00:02:10.073 --> 00:02:11.000
reasonable care.

00:02:30.320 --> 00:02:33.800
There may be instances where a binding
ruling is warranted.

fc8e17b4-224a-45c0-9eea-e9cfa72412e7-0
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:39.203
If an importer requires a determination
in writing on a specific product with a

fc8e17b4-224a-45c0-9eea-e9cfa72412e7-1
00:02:39.203 --> 00:02:43.270
specific set of facts,
they should apply for a ruling using the

fc8e17b4-224a-45c0-9eea-e9cfa72412e7-2
00:02:43.270 --> 00:02:45.240
link that you see on this slide.

0b4ad1d0-ff35-4326-a703-ed44974d3c2e-0
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:50.867
The National Commodity Specialist
Division routinely issues rulings on

0b4ad1d0-ff35-4326-a703-ed44974d3c2e-1
00:02:50.867 --> 00:02:55.359
classification, marking,
origin and trade preference programs. If

0b4ad1d0-ff35-4326-a703-ed44974d3c2e-2
00:02:55.359 --> 00:02:56.120
applicable,

7cdb9d89-b2a5-472c-8606-ff91c65218fc-0
00:02:56.320 --> 00:03:00.920
Section 232 and Section 301 are also
addressed in these rulings.

452d653a-7aa8-4eec-bdd4-2fb12598e2b1-0
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:06.878
CBP does not issue rulings related to
anti-dumping and countervailing scope

452d653a-7aa8-4eec-bdd4-2fb12598e2b1-1
00:03:06.878 --> 00:03:07.960
determinations.

ec26ede1-bbf1-4689-9554-28512b194506-0
00:03:10.880 --> 00:03:15.280
We are often asked where the webinar can
be found after the presentation.

28cb6f0e-771e-497b-b393-d55ef2b6f812-0
00:03:15.760 --> 00:03:19.914
Since this is an external webinar,
you will be able to find it at this link

28cb6f0e-771e-497b-b393-d55ef2b6f812-1
00:03:19.914 --> 00:03:22.320
on the screen that you see in front of
you.

408578c5-219e-4713-aeda-54d4ba765b3e-0
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:27.680
This is my contact information.

7e868b0e-3e58-4bdf-a1a9-aba0427a1dbe-0
00:03:27.760 --> 00:03:30.760
I will provide it again at the end of the
presentation.

1b4356eb-8d23-48c6-8a64-a5f87d3dc711-0
00:03:31.600 --> 00:03:37.326
My branch chief is Mark Nackman and my two
National Import Specialist associates are

1b4356eb-8d23-48c6-8a64-a5f87d3dc711-1
00:03:37.326 --> 00:03:43.052
Mike Volpe and Nataliya Potereyko and this
webinar would not be possible without the

1b4356eb-8d23-48c6-8a64-a5f87d3dc711-2
00:03:43.052 --> 00:03:43.880
two of them,

d14d99cf-f611-418f-b375-371053c954a4-0
00:03:43.880 --> 00:03:45.920
so thank you guys very much.

fbc558c7-399e-43a4-84a9-6a6a8b562879-0
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:54.547
My provisions include Headings 7303
through 7307 and Chapter 73,

fbc558c7-399e-43a4-84a9-6a6a8b562879-1
00:03:54.547 --> 00:04:01.229
and then the base metals of Chapters 74
through 81, with a few exceptions,

fbc558c7-399e-43a4-84a9-6a6a8b562879-2
00:04:01.229 --> 00:04:02.120
including.

2a5174c0-2b27-4a63-a4f8-1cf811409317-0
00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:09.237
Other articles of today's topics include
the definition of a pipe,

2a5174c0-2b27-4a63-a4f8-1cf811409317-1
00:04:09.237 --> 00:04:16.991
tube, or hollow profile and the
organization of Headings 7304, 7305,

2a5174c0-2b27-4a63-a4f8-1cf811409317-2
00:04:16.991 --> 00:04:18.160
and 7306.

fd348f68-0e6e-45fd-91cc-d3d5f3d17b8e-0
00:04:20.880 --> 00:04:25.478
While it may not look like a long agenda,
Headings

fd348f68-0e6e-45fd-91cc-d3d5f3d17b8e-1
00:04:25.478 --> 00:04:30.000
7304, 7305 and 7306 cover a number of
pages in the tariff.

bed7496f-7d0f-4700-92da-46b7b5ff4934-0
00:04:30.960 --> 00:04:35.950
And my goal today is to walk you through
the organization of these three headings

bed7496f-7d0f-4700-92da-46b7b5ff4934-1
00:04:35.950 --> 00:04:39.480
to make it easier for you to classify
pipes in the field.

338b938f-2365-4398-b8f6-3ab6b0ca64b9-0
00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:45.711
So please keep in mind that the correct
classification is imperative in today's

338b938f-2365-4398-b8f6-3ab6b0ca64b9-1
00:04:45.711 --> 00:04:49.957
world of trade remedies,
anti-dumping countervailing duties as

338b938f-2365-4398-b8f6-3ab6b0ca64b9-2
00:04:49.957 --> 00:04:51.440
well as other tariffs.

4baa2bbe-2639-4ac4-85bf-1e24f814847a-0
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:55.518
And speaking of trade remedies and anti-
dumping,

4baa2bbe-2639-4ac4-85bf-1e24f814847a-1
00:04:55.518 --> 00:05:00.760
today's topics do not include anti-
dumping countervailing duty on pipes.

f4b924d3-f7a4-49bc-8de8-74fddd86c642-0
00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:06.785
It does not include the trade remedy
Sections 232 or 301 or any

f4b924d3-f7a4-49bc-8de8-74fddd86c642-1
00:05:06.785 --> 00:05:08.160
reciprocal tariffs.

a0a923a1-4d4b-4a52-934b-f47da70db9da-0
00:05:09.280 --> 00:05:13.900
I decided to not include these topics
because I don't want to just read off

a0a923a1-4d4b-4a52-934b-f47da70db9da-1
00:05:13.900 --> 00:05:18.763
tariff numbers to you and a monotone mind
numbing series of classifications and

a0a923a1-4d4b-4a52-934b-f47da70db9da-2
00:05:18.763 --> 00:05:23.080
definitions and have you fall asleep
halfway through the presentation.

f9cc54fa-7f1e-43af-b33b-84a025dd4676-0
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:27.424
I want you to understand the logic,
or the lack thereof,

f9cc54fa-7f1e-43af-b33b-84a025dd4676-1
00:05:27.424 --> 00:05:31.560
behind the way the tariff is broken down
the way that it is.

4ff09d9e-810d-48b4-b187-46d998afaa26-0
00:05:32.280 --> 00:05:34.879
And if you know how headings are broken
down,

4ff09d9e-810d-48b4-b187-46d998afaa26-1
00:05:34.879 --> 00:05:39.343
my hope is that it will make it easier
for you to know at least where to start

4ff09d9e-810d-48b4-b187-46d998afaa26-2
00:05:39.343 --> 00:05:42.960
when you're trying to classify a pipe,
tube, or hollow profile.

2c70a0bc-c303-4bd2-a2fa-fcaaa233f1b4-0
00:05:47.440 --> 00:05:49.300
Well,
I did say I wasn't going to drone on

2c70a0bc-c303-4bd2-a2fa-fcaaa233f1b4-1
00:05:49.300 --> 00:05:50.080
about definitions.

d8febd6f-633a-4091-b830-e3ed205e1e6d-0
00:05:50.080 --> 00:05:52.840
There are some definitions that are
necessary.

dec445a7-3924-468f-ba22-fc20936dcbeb-0
00:05:53.960 --> 00:05:56.920
We will talk about the definitions as we
come to them.

c61c7d6f-3dc1-42b9-8062-5578550887ca-0
00:05:57.240 --> 00:05:59.960
That way,
we all remember what the definitions are

c61c7d6f-3dc1-42b9-8062-5578550887ca-1
00:05:59.960 --> 00:06:00.920
when we need them.

173c89cb-94d5-4c98-8320-756849292128-0
00:06:02.760 --> 00:06:03.320
Excuse me.

ceadf873-2248-4911-9640-f6935681bdcf-0
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:09.720
So let's start with the definition of
iron and steel.

1b1ca07c-f6f1-4ef1-b258-b2823198e92c-0
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:15.019
In its most basic form,
iron is simply an element like carbon and

1b1ca07c-f6f1-4ef1-b258-b2823198e92c-1
00:06:15.019 --> 00:06:15.480
oxygen.

03241ab1-1af7-4082-a752-62cfcd01d346-0
00:06:16.080 --> 00:06:20.090
There are a number of different types of
iron in chapters 72 and 73,

03241ab1-1af7-4082-a752-62cfcd01d346-1
00:06:20.090 --> 00:06:22.880
but those are beyond the scope of this
webinar.

165d7808-e1c3-43b1-953c-b7a6b09ab5a4-0
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:30.614
Steel is defined in Chapter 72, Note 1(d),
as ferrous materials other than those of

165d7808-e1c3-43b1-953c-b7a6b09ab5a4-1
00:06:30.614 --> 00:06:35.123
heading 7203, which,
with the exception of certain types

165d7808-e1c3-43b1-953c-b7a6b09ab5a4-2
00:06:35.123 --> 00:06:40.332
produced in the form of castings,
are usefully malleable and which

165d7808-e1c3-43b1-953c-b7a6b09ab5a4-3
00:06:40.332 --> 00:06:43.520
contained by weight 2% or less of carbon.

99d010cf-9e1f-4d1f-927d-6b20295607b5-0
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:46.484
However,
chromium steel's may contain higher

99d010cf-9e1f-4d1f-927d-6b20295607b5-1
00:06:46.484 --> 00:06:47.640
proportions of carbon.

d64bfd73-1cb6-416d-ae61-829a2ec7f6c1-0
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:53.968
There are also many different types of
steel in Chapters 72 and 73,

d64bfd73-1cb6-416d-ae61-829a2ec7f6c1-1
00:06:53.968 --> 00:06:59.813
and while most of those are going to be
beyond the scope of this webinar, some,

d64bfd73-1cb6-416d-ae61-829a2ec7f6c1-2
00:06:59.813 --> 00:07:03.320
such as the chromium steels,
we will not cover.

abc6f885-889a-47a0-afdd-67ee4e7a0397-0
00:07:03.320 --> 00:07:06.941
But we will address stainless steel,
non alloy steel,

abc6f885-889a-47a0-afdd-67ee4e7a0397-1
00:07:06.941 --> 00:07:10.160
alloy steel and just a handful of other
steels.

e4f4d1fb-3270-4c23-963a-f33d0f1743bc-0
00:07:13.400 --> 00:07:18.342
Now the explanatory notes give us a
definition of tubes and pipes and hollow

e4f4d1fb-3270-4c23-963a-f33d0f1743bc-1
00:07:18.342 --> 00:07:18.920
profiles.

4d2a74b7-438c-4f15-b347-fe3907b8a68b-0
00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:22.800
So tubes and pipes are concentric hollow
products.

63839832-ef14-4ffa-9689-f334e59da702-0
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:25.320
They have a uniform cross section.

07e6ade9-80fd-4c07-98d3-1c0a39f7f05b-0
00:07:25.960 --> 00:07:29.000
They have only one enclosed void along
their whole length.

0d897a78-8ebe-4369-a8f3-c23eef9229d6-0
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.920
The inner and outer surfaces are of the
same form.

79078ef7-191d-4932-aa38-2583ac93fecb-0
00:07:33.840 --> 00:07:38.495
They can be circular, oval,
rectangular or square cross sections and

79078ef7-191d-4932-aa38-2583ac93fecb-1
00:07:38.495 --> 00:07:43.960
they can include equilateral triangles,
convex polygonal cross sections and they

79078ef7-191d-4932-aa38-2583ac93fecb-2
00:07:43.960 --> 00:07:49.156
can be polished, coated, bent, threaded,
coupled, drilled, wasted, expanded,

79078ef7-191d-4932-aa38-2583ac93fecb-3
00:07:49.156 --> 00:07:52.800
cone shaped or fitted with flanges,
collars or rings.

1926b132-928e-46c5-89e0-2a2f7e5c8fb8-0
00:07:53.880 --> 00:07:57.400
A hollow profile can have more than one
enclosed void,

1926b132-928e-46c5-89e0-2a2f7e5c8fb8-1
00:07:57.400 --> 00:07:59.320
but it must have at least one.

9e6ea358-9ae4-4262-bc41-3d91da573d33-0
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.320
So we're done with the first couple of
definitions.

b59321b3-20ea-4b66-bc57-f0bd440a284f-0
00:08:03.320 --> 00:08:07.960
So let's go ahead and move over to
heading 7304 and get started.

6f53d049-750a-4dc7-b2ff-3d28997e3cc0-0
00:08:10.400 --> 00:08:16.803
Heading 7304 reads tubes,
pipes and hollow profiles, seamless of

6f53d049-750a-4dc7-b2ff-3d28997e3cc0-1
00:08:16.803 --> 00:08:20.200
iron other than cast iron or steel.

720e0280-55d0-443f-b925-67c822085593-0
00:08:22.280 --> 00:08:26.438
We've already covered the definitions of
iron and steel and also of tubes,

720e0280-55d0-443f-b925-67c822085593-1
00:08:26.438 --> 00:08:27.880
pipes and hollow profiles.

d34227f2-e748-4a52-badd-67bc25aad331-0
00:08:28.280 --> 00:08:30.080
But what do we mean by seamless?

f7b1f0a5-1159-4efd-8fb0-a3f82311178f-0
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:34.760
Actually,
seamless is very self-explanatory.

ff5e69a0-84eb-4ae9-8105-55b59a023161-0
00:08:34.760 --> 00:08:36.920
It just simply means no seams.

b0d5442e-8b2a-4064-92a5-bed788240b36-0
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:43.549
The explanatory notes provide a number of
ways to manufacture a seamless pipe tube

b0d5442e-8b2a-4064-92a5-bed788240b36-1
00:08:43.549 --> 00:08:47.287
or hollow profile,
but the important thing to remember is

b0d5442e-8b2a-4064-92a5-bed788240b36-2
00:08:47.287 --> 00:08:52.860
that the seamless pipe is formed from a
solid intermediate product and it's not a

b0d5442e-8b2a-4064-92a5-bed788240b36-3
00:08:52.860 --> 00:08:53.879
sheet of steel.

b9a6ed02-8cdd-4b84-a894-63b790f377e3-0
00:08:54.640 --> 00:08:59.172
There are no ends or edges that have been
brought together and connected by welding

b9a6ed02-8cdd-4b84-a894-63b790f377e3-1
00:08:59.172 --> 00:09:00.360
or riveting, etcetera.

3b0737af-7dc1-4ffe-93b1-983114e2235e-0
00:09:04.280 --> 00:09:08.800
What we see on this slide are several
ways to manufacture a seamless tube.

87a6a1d4-57fe-4866-b555-3cf74aa1df50-0
00:09:09.560 --> 00:09:13.485
You can have the solid product in a
stationary container and you can pierce

87a6a1d4-57fe-4866-b555-3cf74aa1df50-1
00:09:13.485 --> 00:09:13.640
it.

594f4f9b-fc26-4572-8db6-4e1535aa5d1f-0
00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:19.540
You can have a tool that pierces the
inglip ingot or the billet as it's being

594f4f9b-fc26-4572-8db6-4e1535aa5d1f-1
00:09:19.540 --> 00:09:20.680
formed by rollers.

509a96b5-acd0-431f-87f5-aae296bb23bc-0
00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:24.400
You can pull the ingot over the piercing
tool.

b6081ab5-e215-4fdf-8250-e7d525076ab6-0
00:09:25.520 --> 00:09:30.520
The point is that you have a solid
product that has been pierced in some way.

ecee8f6e-7fbc-46fa-bb9c-4af9aea1d0cb-0
00:09:33.800 --> 00:09:39.216
The explanatory notes do include some
exclusions, such as tubes,

ecee8f6e-7fbc-46fa-bb9c-4af9aea1d0cb-1
00:09:39.216 --> 00:09:44.883
pipes and hollow profiles of headings
7303, 7305 and 7306,

ecee8f6e-7fbc-46fa-bb9c-4af9aea1d0cb-2
00:09:44.883 --> 00:09:47.800
as well as pipe fittings of 7307.

a3f99205-aa4b-46de-a0de-e402b8487291-0
00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:53.561
Also excluded is flexible iron and steel
tubing with or without fittings,

a3f99205-aa4b-46de-a0de-e402b8487291-1
00:09:53.561 --> 00:09:57.717
as well as insulated electrical conduit
tubing and any pipes,

a3f99205-aa4b-46de-a0de-e402b8487291-2
00:09:57.717 --> 00:10:02.880
tubes or hollow profiles that are made
into a specific identifiable article.

e4e905db-2f2c-4fc9-ae44-c43c8fe20a70-0
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:08.412
So as you can see,
there are many exclusions to heading 7304

e4e905db-2f2c-4fc9-ae44-c43c8fe20a70-1
00:10:08.412 --> 00:10:14.720
and you will see the same exclusions two
more times when we go over headings 7305

e4e905db-2f2c-4fc9-ae44-c43c8fe20a70-2
00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:15.720
and 7306.

83fdc112-605a-47e6-8075-54609277825e-0
00:10:15.880 --> 00:10:17.760
Just some of the headings will be swapped
out.

7a9eb34f-c22a-442f-a336-314f382efc04-0
00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:25.168
So now that we know what iron is,
what steel pipe, tubes,

7a9eb34f-c22a-442f-a336-314f382efc04-1
00:10:25.168 --> 00:10:30.314
hollow profiles and seamless are,
let's look at how 70 heading 7304 is

7a9eb34f-c22a-442f-a336-314f382efc04-2
00:10:30.314 --> 00:10:31.160
broken down.

d172dfff-1c41-4074-b3d7-875712a1e3ec-0
00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:35.040
It's broken down into four sections.

50deab4c-7ed4-45f0-a771-da27a2f86a15-0
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:37.520
The first section is going to be line
pipe.

3bba70f8-911f-4e2f-a4d8-14d0ecf1f897-0
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:42.760
The second section is going to be casing
tubing and drill pipe of a kind used for

3bba70f8-911f-4e2f-a4d8-14d0ecf1f897-1
00:10:42.760 --> 00:10:44.200
drilling for oil or gas.

334a0515-f46d-4bd4-beb2-a3c5ccec7202-0
00:10:44.760 --> 00:10:48.360
The third section is going to be other
pipes of circular cross-section.

089fe700-15b9-4950-aa19-a1c62a24147a-0
00:10:48.680 --> 00:10:51.360
And then the 4th and final section is
going to be other.

ccec9001-ce6c-4b6b-b425-08978c3289aa-0
00:10:55.680 --> 00:11:02.670
The first two sections which are line
pipe and casing tubing and drill pipe are

ccec9001-ce6c-4b6b-b425-08978c3289aa-1
00:11:02.670 --> 00:11:07.040
also known as oil country or OCTG or oil
country

91cedaf7-8897-4199-b756-174059d47616-0
00:11:07.040 --> 00:11:13.143
tubular goods. Say that three times fast.
And they have their own explanatory notes

91cedaf7-8897-4199-b756-174059d47616-1
00:11:13.143 --> 00:11:19.024
that tell us that the seamless pipe or
tube, if it's going to be used as OCTG,

91cedaf7-8897-4199-b756-174059d47616-2
00:11:19.024 --> 00:11:24.160
then it needs to be classified as OCTG
regardless of specifications.

10572ca2-5704-4e40-88a7-57ef49ae2cb3-0
00:11:25.280 --> 00:11:31.097
If you're looking at an entry summary and
the invoice says OCTG and the importer

10572ca2-5704-4e40-88a7-57ef49ae2cb3-1
00:11:31.097 --> 00:11:36.627
classified it somewhere else because they
said it didn't meet the API specs,

10572ca2-5704-4e40-88a7-57ef49ae2cb3-2
00:11:36.627 --> 00:11:41.080
it is still considered OCTG and it should
be classified here.

137c7b02-542a-4d2a-a00a-6de89aa820d9-0
00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:47.840
So let's break down the line pipe and
don't panic,

e5e0a910-0dbf-46a6-8eba-9b2f3a4e4dd8-0
00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:50.440
I promised I wasn't going to read this to
you, so I'm not.

30bf888e-e235-4eb6-8de4-b6a5dbfc86f0-0
00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:53.758
I just want you to see how it's broken
down,

30bf888e-e235-4eb6-8de4-b6a5dbfc86f0-1
00:11:53.758 --> 00:11:57.000
which is in three very logical parts
based on chemistry.

0d5f4bbe-0b57-4a71-9ee0-07483f65595c-0
00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:02.640
You have stainless steel, non-alloy steel,
and other alloy steel.

b0b82b9a-f219-433b-81ae-c2ba72abfea6-0
00:12:03.520 --> 00:12:08.736
The stainless steel and the other alloy
steel is broken down by outside diameter

b0b82b9a-f219-433b-81ae-c2ba72abfea6-1
00:12:08.736 --> 00:12:11.248
only,
while the non-alloy steel has an

b0b82b9a-f219-433b-81ae-c2ba72abfea6-2
00:12:11.248 --> 00:12:13.760
additional breakdown by wall thickness.

322945c2-8253-41ed-bedd-71246a3d6480-0
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:18.118
And all of this information,
whether it's stainless steel,

322945c2-8253-41ed-bedd-71246a3d6480-1
00:12:18.118 --> 00:12:22.753
non-alloy steel or other alloy steel,
the outside diameter and the wall

322945c2-8253-41ed-bedd-71246a3d6480-2
00:12:22.753 --> 00:12:26.680
thickness can all be found on a valid
mill test certificate.

91219bd7-84a7-4f74-9e36-22d74f867431-0
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:36.271
So we finished the first four section at
the first of the four sections of heading

91219bd7-84a7-4f74-9e36-22d74f867431-1
00:12:36.271 --> 00:12:36.760
7304.

e7428b64-7652-4de6-a8c2-fda91c006809-0
00:12:36.760 --> 00:12:40.253
So let's go ahead and look at the next
section, which is casing,

e7428b64-7652-4de6-a8c2-fda91c006809-1
00:12:40.253 --> 00:12:43.800
tubing and drill pipe of a kind used for
drilling for oil or gas.

b0b3bcae-a531-4263-b76d-0d2e63b5bf0b-0
00:12:44.040 --> 00:12:47.160
And I promise I won't keep saying that
whole entire phrase the whole time either.

8d8b0304-97c2-4bce-a3c5-1cecfe8da619-0
00:12:49.040 --> 00:12:52.920
So I want you to know what casing, tubing,
and drill pipe is because it's hard to

8d8b0304-97c2-4bce-a3c5-1cecfe8da619-1
00:12:52.920 --> 00:12:55.240
classify something if you don't know what
it is.

99038f7c-87cc-4388-8fde-bf8fc06906da-0
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:01.134
Casing is a pipe or tube that stabilizes
the wellbore and it prevents the

99038f7c-87cc-4388-8fde-bf8fc06906da-1
00:13:01.134 --> 00:13:06.572
contaminants and water from entering the
oil flow and prevents oil from seeping

99038f7c-87cc-4388-8fde-bf8fc06906da-2
00:13:06.572 --> 00:13:08.000
into the groundwater.

de9bad0b-c1e6-4087-9392-c6f4ae8a1b4d-0
00:13:09.040 --> 00:13:14.133
Tubing transports fluids such as oil or
gas or water from the production zone,

de9bad0b-c1e6-4087-9392-c6f4ae8a1b4d-1
00:13:14.133 --> 00:13:17.680
which is the green part of this slide,
to the surface.

386912a7-a533-43cd-acff-76cc614fe11e-0
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:23.112
The drill pipe is used for rotating the
drill bit as well as circulating the

386912a7-a533-43cd-acff-76cc614fe11e-1
00:13:23.112 --> 00:13:24.840
drill fluid during drilling.

4f634cd4-5163-4997-ac93-bb9e54475824-0
00:13:25.560 --> 00:13:28.520
So casing can actually be used in a
number of places

c498a732-0b24-421d-9075-f1c0206a06df-0
00:13:28.520 --> 00:13:29.480
in the drilling setup.

edfbdc91-81d5-46d5-baf2-2936d8481319-0
00:13:30.160 --> 00:13:33.974
You almost always find surface casing
which is at the top of the hole and it

edfbdc91-81d5-46d5-baf2-2936d8481319-1
00:13:33.974 --> 00:13:35.560
prevents surface cave ins.

d07c5b99-bb9f-4222-adc8-a7aca1e39439-0
00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:41.320
You can also see intermediate casing
strings that support the tubing and then

d07c5b99-bb9f-4222-adc8-a7aca1e39439-1
00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:46.334
the tubing asserted inserted into the
casing or a casing string to provide a

d07c5b99-bb9f-4222-adc8-a7aca1e39439-2
00:13:46.334 --> 00:13:51.480
continuous pathway for the drill pipe,
which is then inserted into the tubing.

5aad1b36-fd18-4361-a80e-d5f5c334cc59-0
00:13:56.040 --> 00:13:59.277
So now that we know what casing tubing
and drill pipe are,

5aad1b36-fd18-4361-a80e-d5f5c334cc59-1
00:13:59.277 --> 00:14:02.240
let's look at how the tariff schedule
organizes them.

04535302-3495-4c4b-b69d-e126569e3f8f-0
00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:05.920
Line pipe was broken down pretty
logically, right?

904e340f-f24e-4cb2-8c36-8a4675443a1a-0
00:14:07.560 --> 00:14:10.050
Well,
here comes casing tubing and drill pipe

904e340f-f24e-4cb2-8c36-8a4675443a1a-1
00:14:10.050 --> 00:14:12.000
to just completely ignore all logic.

698c5280-3b6f-430c-af46-54765429c037-0
00:14:12.760 --> 00:14:16.793
For starters,
this heading is called casing, tubing and

698c5280-3b6f-430c-af46-54765429c037-1
00:14:16.793 --> 00:14:17.600
drill pipe.

afc6cf45-e4c8-4e62-84a1-7c085c7b4385-0
00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:20.960
So it would make sense to start with the
casing, right?

da67bed0-8303-4839-ac91-2a8f6f6fcc14-0
00:14:21.960 --> 00:14:25.480
Do they start with casing and then move
on to tubing and drill pipe?

affb6577-66a6-44c1-b356-a296456c9256-0
00:14:25.920 --> 00:14:28.520
No, they start with drill pipe.

24dd23be-0853-4e6b-b9db-56e9691b70a5-0
00:14:29.560 --> 00:14:33.880
Do they break down the drill pipe like
they did the line pipe into stainless non-

24dd23be-0853-4e6b-b9db-56e9691b70a5-1
00:14:33.880 --> 00:14:37.080
alloy and other alloy and then break it
down by dimensions?

15a854da-8717-4866-ac31-feb790cd5a20-0
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:42.516
Kind of, sort of,
but not really if they break it down into

15a854da-8717-4866-ac31-feb790cd5a20-1
00:14:42.516 --> 00:14:47.720
stainless steel drill pipe and drill pipe
of other than stainless steel.

4f8f167b-dc6a-459b-9d73-db32c29d99c6-0
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:53.933
And when you talk about the stainless
steel drill pipe in 7304.22, that's

4f8f167b-dc6a-459b-9d73-db32c29d99c6-1
00:14:53.933 --> 00:14:57.400
broken down by outside diameter and wall
thickness.

6864eab5-dcee-493a-9b97-61cf15fec8a9-0
00:14:58.160 --> 00:15:02.148
But when it comes to other drill pipe in
7304.23,

6864eab5-dcee-493a-9b97-61cf15fec8a9-1
00:15:02.148 --> 00:15:06.840
it's broken down by whether or not it's
non-alloy or alloy.

d63f8c26-4ead-4999-a9a4-1e4ed4778e2c-0
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.880
The non-alloy steel drill pipe,
it's not broken down at all.

ede461ea-3f86-4d04-93e1-9bbb05d0f061-0
00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:17.734
It's just simply classified and
subheading 7304.23.3000 while the other

ede461ea-3f86-4d04-93e1-9bbb05d0f061-1
00:15:17.734 --> 00:15:23.520
alloy steel drill pipe is broken down by
outside diameter and wall thickness.

627b072c-a49e-408a-89bb-780c92494d4e-0
00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:31.680
So they started with the last one in the
list of casing, tubing and drill pipe.

1baf3a5e-8cc1-4946-a0e3-1290f3f24f06-0
00:15:32.760 --> 00:15:37.596
They broke it down into stainless steel
and other than stainless steel instead of

1baf3a5e-8cc1-4946-a0e3-1290f3f24f06-1
00:15:37.596 --> 00:15:39.720
stainless, non-alloy and other alloy.

0240f823-6df5-42ed-8e62-63b99f01d81e-0
00:15:40.920 --> 00:15:46.086
The non alloy is not broken down by
outside diameter and wall thickness while

0240f823-6df5-42ed-8e62-63b99f01d81e-1
00:15:46.086 --> 00:15:51.055
the stainless steel and the other alloy
steel drill pipe is broken down by

0240f823-6df5-42ed-8e62-63b99f01d81e-2
00:15:51.055 --> 00:15:53.440
outside diameter and wall thickness.

1e97e664-7a40-42a4-97bb-f7923146e9ef-0
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:59.802
Does anyone want to guess whether the
next parts of this section of 7304

1e97e664-7a40-42a4-97bb-f7923146e9ef-1
00:15:59.802 --> 00:16:01.040
are logical or not?

1f4b65c0-af53-4d69-9c1a-8eb90731b446-0
00:16:04.760 --> 00:16:09.120
Do they move on to casing or tubing since
they've already covered drill pipe?

895cd9c4-1129-4882-adac-248824fd34c6-0
00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:12.820
No,
Instead of breaking the remainder of 7304

895cd9c4-1129-4882-adac-248824fd34c6-1
00:16:12.820 --> 00:16:18.412
down into casing and then tubing,
they jump over to chemistry and break it

895cd9c4-1129-4882-adac-248824fd34c6-2
00:16:18.412 --> 00:16:19.719
down by chemistry.

12bfe13f-32e3-4edf-957c-fe317d6a3483-0
00:16:20.920 --> 00:16:26.265
So we start with stainless steel,
which is broken down into casing or

12bfe13f-32e3-4edf-957c-fe317d6a3483-1
00:16:26.265 --> 00:16:26.800
tubing.

7941b34f-0b60-4de2-9867-2b48c26b68ff-0
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:33.960
Casing is broken down into threaded or
coupled or other than threaded or coupled.

f4d9b0cf-8cf4-4199-b104-f913f59e2d06-0
00:16:34.680 --> 00:16:38.880
And from there it's broken down by
outside diameter and wall thickness.

e61ebac7-ecde-42f2-8ecf-755bfe8d03ea-0
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.558
And remember,
we're organizing by chemistry in this

e61ebac7-ecde-42f2-8ecf-755bfe8d03ea-1
00:16:45.558 --> 00:16:46.640
particular section.

d069dd7a-a948-45cc-8d5c-88bd9acc3a4f-0
00:16:47.560 --> 00:16:53.045
The last slide was stainless steel casing,
so we're moving on to stainless steel

d069dd7a-a948-45cc-8d5c-88bd9acc3a4f-1
00:16:53.045 --> 00:16:53.520
tubing.

6c62d6da-25c9-47c2-a79c-3693fc017840-0
00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:54.640
All right.

7a4aa590-1164-4468-8287-33b3502c7551-0
00:16:54.640 --> 00:16:59.130
So while stainless steel casing was
broken down first by whether it was

7a4aa590-1164-4468-8287-33b3502c7551-1
00:16:59.130 --> 00:17:02.997
shredded or coupled,
stainless steel tubing on the other hand

7a4aa590-1164-4468-8287-33b3502c7551-2
00:17:02.997 --> 00:17:08.048
is broken down by outside diameter with
only the smallest outside diameter being

7a4aa590-1164-4468-8287-33b3502c7551-3
00:17:08.048 --> 00:17:09.920
broken down by wall thickness.

1b2f351d-0971-4398-bddc-47274e8511d4-0
00:17:11.080 --> 00:17:14.477
Since they stopped breaking it down by
casing,

1b2f351d-0971-4398-bddc-47274e8511d4-1
00:17:14.477 --> 00:17:19.177
tubing and drill pipe and started
breaking it down by chemistry,

1b2f351d-0971-4398-bddc-47274e8511d4-2
00:17:19.177 --> 00:17:22.430
and because we just covered stainless
steel,

1b2f351d-0971-4398-bddc-47274e8511d4-3
00:17:22.430 --> 00:17:28.141
the next section logically should be a
chemistry breakdown of either non-alloy

1b2f351d-0971-4398-bddc-47274e8511d4-4
00:17:28.141 --> 00:17:30.600
steel or other alloy steel, right?

8ebe4b24-1edc-48d5-be74-71c2e6b51f18-0
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:36.754
Nope,
they go back to breaking it down by

8ebe4b24-1edc-48d5-be74-71c2e6b51f18-1
00:17:36.754 --> 00:17:39.280
product instead of by chemistry.

0d0ddb99-586f-4cdf-8ea4-3136faa95668-0
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:46.720
So casing has been broken down by non-
alloy steel and other alloy steel.

0d707997-490a-4af7-9f39-e8e6aa2e15f1-0
00:17:48.280 --> 00:17:52.990
From there it's broken down by threaded
or coupled or other than threaded or

0d707997-490a-4af7-9f39-e8e6aa2e15f1-1
00:17:52.990 --> 00:17:53.480
coupled.

1f657179-28a1-4ff6-839e-f397f0266713-0
00:17:54.360 --> 00:17:58.080
From there it's broken down by outside
diameter and wall thickness.

3a153201-8aa4-493f-8b07-e2e84c7afae0-0
00:17:58.840 --> 00:18:03.600
Do you see why I didn't want to just read
off the classifications?

3a153201-8aa4-493f-8b07-e2e84c7afae0-1
00:18:03.600 --> 00:18:09.000
Why I wanted to give you some sort of
explanation to give them some credit?

48f489c1-7fce-476c-86fd-c6c1a194a218-0
00:18:09.960 --> 00:18:16.685
The alloy steel casing on the next slide
is identical to the non-alloy steel casing

48f489c1-7fce-476c-86fd-c6c1a194a218-1
00:18:16.685 --> 00:18:19.720
on this slide in order of breakdowns.

f7fceb62-04d1-4ad6-8b99-eb67ff85bd7b-0
00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:21.960
So we have to give them some credit there.

5f47b011-e9bf-46bb-9216-8e482fc5bed9-0
00:18:25.080 --> 00:18:29.530
Broken down by threaded or coupled and
then by outside diameter or wall and wall

5f47b011-e9bf-46bb-9216-8e482fc5bed9-1
00:18:29.530 --> 00:18:30.080
thickness.

191c8b1b-8106-437b-9119-425de2f94fc3-0
00:18:33.760 --> 00:18:39.162
And the last breakdown of case tubing and
drill pipe are the ones named in the

191c8b1b-8106-437b-9119-425de2f94fc3-1
00:18:39.162 --> 00:18:40.120
middle: Tubing.

bd3ff303-f6ad-4d42-a8ee-b35aed2ec697-0
00:18:41.040 --> 00:18:46.640
So tubing is broken down by chemistry
into non-alloy steel or other alloy steel.

5f3fdd74-266c-419f-a547-480f1187f5ea-0
00:18:47.120 --> 00:18:54.240
If you remember we covered stainless
steel tubing and 7304.24 from here.

ff149833-6798-4971-ac6a-33f03e182585-0
00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:57.400
It's broken down by outside diameter and
wall thickness.

8dfa64f0-67b5-4dd6-9f0b-eb3bc116eaf4-0
00:18:59.120 --> 00:19:04.080
How many people other than me are happy
that this section is over with?

7da17675-e8d0-42fd-b07c-0a4403a7a34a-0
00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:11.840
I know that was a lot of information so I
want to do a quick and dirty recap here.

c2d3904e-8b1c-46f3-9171-904cc30fff5b-0
00:19:12.800 --> 00:19:18.963
Stainless steel drill pipe and other
alloy steel drill pipe is broken down by

c2d3904e-8b1c-46f3-9171-904cc30fff5b-1
00:19:18.963 --> 00:19:25.364
outside diameter and wall thickness while
other sorry stainless steel drill pipe

c2d3904e-8b1c-46f3-9171-904cc30fff5b-2
00:19:25.364 --> 00:19:31.449
and other alloy steel drill pipe is
broken down by outside diameter and wall

c2d3904e-8b1c-46f3-9171-904cc30fff5b-3
00:19:31.449 --> 00:19:32.239
thickness.

79949417-e105-4850-aed1-20c6ff50abff-0
00:19:32.480 --> 00:19:37.430
While iron or non alloy steel drill pipe
has no further breakdowns and can be

79949417-e105-4850-aed1-20c6ff50abff-1
00:19:37.430 --> 00:19:39.080
found in their subheading.

4a35727b-7625-4e1b-a245-53035f7ba806-0
00:19:39.080 --> 00:19:41.440
7304.23.3000.

9d6b13df-e295-4457-b15d-09a928fc56e8-0
00:19:42.320 --> 00:19:47.107
I put these images on this slide because
I want you to know what drill pipes look

9d6b13df-e295-4457-b15d-09a928fc56e8-1
00:19:47.107 --> 00:19:48.800
like when they're being used.

b108ed1b-cddb-4840-ba63-92ee29e44bba-0
00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:53.800
So the images on the slider of drill
pipes and the tool joints.

31a58466-b554-48d9-aa95-2ac37f42bf19-0
00:19:54.640 --> 00:19:59.591
The image on the bottom left is a tool
joint that has both male and female

31a58466-b554-48d9-aa95-2ac37f42bf19-1
00:19:59.591 --> 00:20:00.120
threads.

ebf07434-d5f2-4806-ba87-c4f902476a29-0
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:05.906
It can be screwed either into or onto the
end of a drill pipe depending on where

ebf07434-d5f2-4806-ba87-c4f902476a29-1
00:20:05.906 --> 00:20:08.800
the threads are on that section of drill
pipe.

8b28b67b-d858-499f-acdd-14a18059be2b-0
00:20:09.400 --> 00:20:14.376
So the image in the upper left corner is
a tool joint that has been screwed into

8b28b67b-d858-499f-acdd-14a18059be2b-1
00:20:14.376 --> 00:20:18.369
the end of a drill pipe,
while the image on the lower right is a

8b28b67b-d858-499f-acdd-14a18059be2b-2
00:20:18.369 --> 00:20:22.239
tool joint that has been screwed onto the
end of a drill pipe.

4301115c-3a2d-4b24-8926-f9b8767f8bb2-0
00:20:24.560 --> 00:20:27.966
After drill pipe,
instead of moving on to casing or tubing,

4301115c-3a2d-4b24-8926-f9b8767f8bb2-1
00:20:27.966 --> 00:20:29.840
the breakdowns turn to chemistry.

5a9322a9-addd-4883-867b-fe9e58bdb495-0
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:34.097
So under stainless steel,
the pipes are broken down into casing or

5a9322a9-addd-4883-867b-fe9e58bdb495-1
00:20:34.097 --> 00:20:34.480
tubing.

e469cc5b-c516-4605-8412-584a52c64742-0
00:20:35.200 --> 00:20:38.088
From there,
casing is broken down by whether it's

e469cc5b-c516-4605-8412-584a52c64742-1
00:20:38.088 --> 00:20:41.497
threaded or coupled,
and then by outside diameter and wall

e469cc5b-c516-4605-8412-584a52c64742-2
00:20:41.497 --> 00:20:44.560
thickness,
while the tubing is simply broken down by

e469cc5b-c516-4605-8412-584a52c64742-3
00:20:44.560 --> 00:20:46.640
outside diameter and wall thickness.

668bb27c-fccc-4b88-850b-7533d881e10f-0
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:52.680
Then we jump from chemistry back to
product and we look at casing.

ad8e7e18-b6fa-4e9e-bb41-995936fb062f-0
00:20:53.800 --> 00:20:57.382
Since we covered stainless steel casing
in the last section,

ad8e7e18-b6fa-4e9e-bb41-995936fb062f-1
00:20:57.382 --> 00:21:02.080
we break casing down into non-alloy steel
or other alloy steel in this section.

a0224a1c-c851-48ab-b408-f61835f522e7-0
00:21:02.960 --> 00:21:07.235
From there it's broken down into threaded
or coupled or other than threaded or

a0224a1c-c851-48ab-b408-f61835f522e7-1
00:21:07.235 --> 00:21:10.320
coupled and then by outside diameter and
wall thickness.

3a8f7973-3fc1-419d-b1a5-09c9122cb2cd-0
00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:18.054
Then we move to the last product tubing
which was the one in the middle to finish

3a8f7973-3fc1-419d-b1a5-09c9122cb2cd-1
00:21:18.054 --> 00:21:20.480
off the casing tubing and drill pipe.

0f552897-de68-47d1-aa6d-9dbebadbc1bb-0
00:21:21.560 --> 00:21:24.400
We covered stainless steel tubing two
sections ago.

3ab5e2ef-9572-4a66-b2c9-46daa17bfadb-0
00:21:24.720 --> 00:21:30.007
So we breakdown tubing into non-alloy
steel or other alloy steel and then by

3ab5e2ef-9572-4a66-b2c9-46daa17bfadb-1
00:21:30.007 --> 00:21:32.480
outside diameter and wall thickness.

ee2aa209-1c8e-4980-8823-b623ff7a3b35-0
00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:39.553
I know we're all happy that the casing,
tubing and drill pipe is over with,

ee2aa209-1c8e-4980-8823-b623ff7a3b35-1
00:21:39.553 --> 00:21:43.760
but please keep in mind that we are still
only in Heading 7304.

7763521a-038c-4e75-9922-fc3b725db92a-0
00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:49.600
We have not even started to look at
Headings 7305 or 7306 yet.

6f5f5623-e343-4afb-9dfa-0b862b46a012-0
00:21:50.520 --> 00:21:53.977
So I'm going to keep moving just because
we still have a lot of information to

6f5f5623-e343-4afb-9dfa-0b862b46a012-1
00:21:53.977 --> 00:21:54.240
cover.

4c161edb-55b3-4b87-a10d-4b4ad672047c-0
00:21:56.400 --> 00:22:00.194
So let's get to the other than line pipe
other than casing,

4c161edb-55b3-4b87-a10d-4b4ad672047c-1
00:22:00.194 --> 00:22:05.000
tubing and drill pipe and move on to
other pipes of circular cross section.

871369a2-eee1-4a7b-a4e9-d64a51f9b3d8-0
00:22:07.680 --> 00:22:10.400
We do have some explanatory notes that we
need to cover first.

d98d7dba-66fa-408e-99d4-a3044a0d77d6-0
00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:15.317
So if any of you have ever spent any time
reading the tariff schedule and

d98d7dba-66fa-408e-99d4-a3044a0d77d6-1
00:22:15.317 --> 00:22:19.237
explanatory notes,
you know that they constantly refer you

d98d7dba-66fa-408e-99d4-a3044a0d77d6-2
00:22:19.237 --> 00:22:22.560
back to a different section, chapter,
or heading.

938c1635-0687-4fc0-be53-979c550e7a12-0
00:22:23.520 --> 00:22:26.200
This one does all three,
so bear with me here,

ac074377-6e21-4bfe-9ef0-71567fda4baa-0
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:28.680
OK? Excuse me.

b3931fcd-ec46-4dab-8478-36d73040795e-0
00:22:29.400 --> 00:22:35.143
In order to distinguish between the cold
worked products and the other products of

b3931fcd-ec46-4dab-8478-36d73040795e-1
00:22:35.143 --> 00:22:39.225
these subheadings,
see General Explanatory Note to Chapter

b3931fcd-ec46-4dab-8478-36d73040795e-2
00:22:39.225 --> 00:22:41.440
72, Part IV(B), second paragraph.

c6f28fe9-0c3a-4207-b9a4-be96dbfc9be9-0
00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:48.260
So let's go to General Explanatory Note
to Chapter 72, Part IV(B),

c6f28fe9-0c3a-4207-b9a4-be96dbfc9be9-1
00:22:48.260 --> 00:22:49.440
second paragraph.

1789fd76-39a0-4c05-bd8b-a73929b505df-0
00:22:50.560 --> 00:22:56.573
Cold drop forging and drop stamping means
producing shapes or sections by cold

1789fd76-39a0-4c05-bd8b-a73929b505df-1
00:22:56.573 --> 00:23:00.760
processes similar to those described in
item A(4) above.

fd61ec50-6559-4033-a599-b1f8f1dd734c-0
00:23:01.520 --> 00:23:04.120
OK, let's go to item A(4) above.

edcaa8bf-480f-4d3f-ae54-32c8f595f93e-0
00:23:05.480 --> 00:23:10.718
Hot drop forging and drop stamping mean
producing metal shapes or sections,

edcaa8bf-480f-4d3f-ae54-32c8f595f93e-1
00:23:10.718 --> 00:23:15.475
usually on a conveyor line,
by the hot shaping of cut blanks in dies

edcaa8bf-480f-4d3f-ae54-32c8f595f93e-2
00:23:15.475 --> 00:23:19.680
either closed or with burr joints by
means of special tools.

b4d4c045-c025-4492-9a8a-b68967943ad8-0
00:23:20.520 --> 00:23:24.960
The work carried out by impact or
pressure is generally affected in

b4d4c045-c025-4492-9a8a-b68967943ad8-1
00:23:24.960 --> 00:23:29.792
successive phases following preliminary
operations of rolling, hammering,

b4d4c045-c025-4492-9a8a-b68967943ad8-2
00:23:29.792 --> 00:23:31.360
hand forging or bending.

7cb81b4a-f7b3-4bc2-b787-7441e135e4f1-0
00:23:33.080 --> 00:23:33.920
Pretty easy, right?

96b10483-c93a-4519-8db7-40b133d3d2ea-0
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:38.360
What does it all mean?

d6363f25-f90e-4bc0-9c83-6488235ec630-0
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:46.290
It simply means that cold work products
are produced the same way as hot work

d6363f25-f90e-4bc0-9c83-6488235ec630-1
00:23:46.290 --> 00:23:48.800
products, but at a lower temperature.

9eb4da9e-6b72-4398-af87-cbc97117061d-0
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:51.812
In other words,
when you shape the blanks or the dies,

9eb4da9e-6b72-4398-af87-cbc97117061d-1
00:23:51.812 --> 00:23:55.280
you do it by means of hammering pressure,
rolling, forging, and bending.

e9f52713-0369-4b7b-a904-fa669eed0047-0
00:23:56.040 --> 00:24:01.080
And it does not mean cold temperatures,
it just means lower temperatures.

adc426eb-7e16-4c57-84af-38b94e919c6f-0
00:24:02.160 --> 00:24:07.011
Why they couldn't just say that instead
of referring us to a note that in turn

adc426eb-7e16-4c57-84af-38b94e919c6f-1
00:24:07.011 --> 00:24:09.960
referred us back to another note?
I don't know.

ff24cd01-b18c-48bc-a9db-ad6d3041ef69-0
00:24:09.960 --> 00:24:12.040
Maybe that's job security for me

b49e0e05-aecf-423d-97eb-4687a0fc42f1-0
00:24:12.040 --> 00:24:15.315
because that means I get to look for the
logic and then try to explain it to you

b49e0e05-aecf-423d-97eb-4687a0fc42f1-1
00:24:15.315 --> 00:24:15.760
in English.

142b21ff-f0ef-4842-ab2f-9139a8ffe94a-0
00:24:19.720 --> 00:24:21.951
OK,
we also have to cover a couple of other

142b21ff-f0ef-4842-ab2f-9139a8ffe94a-1
00:24:21.951 --> 00:24:24.640
terms before we get to the actual section
breakdown.

27b1188d-68d4-4f0e-8367-9544965c578f-0
00:24:26.120 --> 00:24:30.040
The first is the definition for hollow bars
and the like.

57c6735d-f4c1-48de-8e85-5480b053cc1f-0
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:38.760
Excuse me, let me grab some water here.
OK.

225510d8-f5e4-4659-864b-7870afc4d64f-0
00:24:38.800 --> 00:24:40.720
The first is the definition for hollow
bars.

cc743a31-0261-43a1-8c4a-382e3a1bbd3f-0
00:24:41.320 --> 00:24:44.308
And like many of subheadings in Chapter
73,

cc743a31-0261-43a1-8c4a-382e3a1bbd3f-1
00:24:44.308 --> 00:24:47.840
the hollow bar gets its definition from
Chapter 72.

64827a1d-ac76-459b-ac97-3b4dd109756c-0
00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:54.957
So a hollow drill bar or rod is a hollow
bar or rod of any cross section suitable

64827a1d-ac76-459b-ac97-3b4dd109756c-1
00:24:54.957 --> 00:25:01.234
for drills of which the greatest external
dimension of cross section exceeds 15mm

64827a1d-ac76-459b-ac97-3b4dd109756c-2
00:25:01.234 --> 00:25:05.827
but doesn't exceed 52mm,
and of which the greatest internal

64827a1d-ac76-459b-ac97-3b4dd109756c-3
00:25:05.827 --> 00:25:10.880
dimension does not exceed one half of the
greatest external dimension.

66d24efd-c183-4eb6-883c-cfe5ac090161-0
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:16.956
Hollow bars and rods of iron or steel not
conforming to this definition are to be

66d24efd-c183-4eb6-883c-cfe5ac090161-1
00:25:16.956 --> 00:25:19.000
classified in heading 7304.

f3b7c200-0354-43f4-9248-5a8871a4ffbc-0
00:25:20.440 --> 00:25:26.116
Note they use the term external dimension
to indicate the outside diameter and the

f3b7c200-0354-43f4-9248-5a8871a4ffbc-1
00:25:26.116 --> 00:25:29.400
term internal dimension to the inside
diameter.

0d01456f-4931-4b8e-97f7-408e5f8f4a72-0
00:25:30.560 --> 00:25:35.480
What this note really means is that these
dimensions will indicate a greater wall

0d01456f-4931-4b8e-97f7-408e5f8f4a72-1
00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:38.000
thickness than most other pipes and tubes.

e4c42cc0-5724-4b7e-9609-1fee97c1bdcd-0
00:25:42.080 --> 00:25:47.841
So the second term that we need to talk
about is suitable for use in boilers,

e4c42cc0-5724-4b7e-9609-1fee97c1bdcd-1
00:25:47.841 --> 00:25:51.091
super heaters, heat exchangers,
condensers,

e4c42cc0-5724-4b7e-9609-1fee97c1bdcd-2
00:25:51.091 --> 00:25:54.120
refining furnaces, and feed water heaters.

8ee388c8-d3a6-4dd9-a86a-9ad9b1c509ee-0
00:25:55.360 --> 00:26:00.312
I don't say definition because there is
no definition of suitable for use in

8ee388c8-d3a6-4dd9-a86a-9ad9b1c509ee-1
00:26:00.312 --> 00:26:04.960
boilers, etcetera. Either in the tariff
schedule or in the explanatory notes.

6f700bcf-a4be-4b4b-b992-da49138481bd-0
00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:07.840
And this is a long debated topic.

47f8367e-3a79-4688-8e35-4f0b98117682-0
00:26:08.760 --> 00:26:13.911
You will find a number of rulings in
CROSS about whether or not a pipe or tube

47f8367e-3a79-4688-8e35-4f0b98117682-1
00:26:13.911 --> 00:26:16.520
is suitable for use in boilers, etcetera.

23c8ffde-fcf0-4d97-a089-21ee3803eee8-0
00:26:17.040 --> 00:26:21.413
One headquarters ruling that does a
really good job at differentiating

23c8ffde-fcf0-4d97-a089-21ee3803eee8-1
00:26:21.413 --> 00:26:26.279
between whether a pipe is suitable for
general use and a pipe that is suitable

23c8ffde-fcf0-4d97-a089-21ee3803eee8-2
00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:30.160
for use in boilers, etcetera,
is headquarters ruling H235551.

c35b6f4e-da1e-4dbd-8d4d-ebf27a5457c1-0
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:35.520
And there is one citation in there in
particular that does a really good job at

c35b6f4e-da1e-4dbd-8d4d-ebf27a5457c1-1
00:26:35.520 --> 00:26:37.080
explaining the difference.

46715376-88af-44f4-b353-400a1a69f8c7-0
00:26:37.520 --> 00:26:42.200
And that citation comes from court case
Warner-Lambert versus United States.

b3e60582-e659-4fde-9344-c33390f8e22b-0
00:26:43.600 --> 00:26:48.777
And it simply says that the words
suitable for use as applied in Customs

b3e60582-e659-4fde-9344-c33390f8e22b-1
00:26:48.777 --> 00:26:53.600
law means actually, practically,
and commercially fit for such use.

2621c257-7088-44ab-a055-a6187883ab8a-0
00:26:54.360 --> 00:27:00.061
Such suitability does not require that
the merchandise be chiefly used for the

2621c257-7088-44ab-a055-a6187883ab8a-1
00:27:00.061 --> 00:27:04.247
stated purpose,
but it does require more than evidence as

2621c257-7088-44ab-a055-a6187883ab8a-2
00:27:04.247 --> 00:27:08.000
a casual, incidental, exceptional,
or possible use.

f0e408b5-99ae-4eb4-818c-5e4a69824b12-0
00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:12.279
So it can't just be, yeah,
I think I'll use this API pipe for

f0e408b5-99ae-4eb4-818c-5e4a69824b12-1
00:27:12.279 --> 00:27:13.440
something different.

81dede48-5dd2-4ad0-a061-042c1a2aec98-0
00:27:13.600 --> 00:27:18.680
It does have to be more than a casual,
incidental, exceptional, or possible use.

a9d8353f-5627-4fb7-8296-51e088ec5042-0
00:27:20.040 --> 00:27:25.644
I put a list of ATM specifications on
this slide because I want you to see that

a9d8353f-5627-4fb7-8296-51e088ec5042-1
00:27:25.644 --> 00:27:31.600
these are common ATM specs for pipes that
are suitable for use in boilers, etcetera.

0f514e8c-d574-48b0-9974-1972276cffcc-0
00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:35.360
This list is by all by no means
all-encompassing.

8f525e59-01d4-439c-bd96-18511d1a0936-0
00:27:36.080 --> 00:27:40.450
If a pipe is imported meeting a
specification that's not on this list,

8f525e59-01d4-439c-bd96-18511d1a0936-1
00:27:40.450 --> 00:27:43.960
then ask the importer what the function
is for the pipe.

883453bf-0a36-4a7e-96ef-886489788b31-0
00:27:44.520 --> 00:27:48.480
That will help you determine if it's
suitable for use as a boiler, etcetera.

bc7d9df4-1305-4288-8b7e-2cb3c13852ce-0
00:27:49.240 --> 00:27:54.602
So let's go ahead and start on the third
section of 7304.

bc7d9df4-1305-4288-8b7e-2cb3c13852ce-1
00:27:54.602 --> 00:27:59.160
And that is other pipes of circular cross
section.

f05d17fd-6eaf-4aff-9a19-66ce521039a5-0
00:27:59.960 --> 00:28:03.518
So these are pipes or tubes that are not
line pipe,

f05d17fd-6eaf-4aff-9a19-66ce521039a5-1
00:28:03.518 --> 00:28:09.062
they're not casing tubing or drill pipe,
but they are pipes that are of circular

f05d17fd-6eaf-4aff-9a19-66ce521039a5-2
00:28:09.062 --> 00:28:14.879
cross section and they are very logically
broken down by chemistry: non-alloy steel,

f05d17fd-6eaf-4aff-9a19-66ce521039a5-3
00:28:14.879 --> 00:28:17.480
stainless steel and other alloy steel.

ce747829-1156-411b-a8c2-df5cad7ae476-0
00:28:19.080 --> 00:28:24.001
The first section that we're going to
talk about is iron or non-alloy steel and

ce747829-1156-411b-a8c2-df5cad7ae476-1
00:28:24.001 --> 00:28:28.984
those are broken down into whether or not
something is cold worked or other than

ce747829-1156-411b-a8c2-df5cad7ae476-2
00:28:28.984 --> 00:28:29.600
cold work.

d82e0c10-11be-4940-95ff-d970ef5a96bf-0
00:28:29.920 --> 00:28:32.840
And we've already talked about cold work,
so we won't go over that again.

c32ac2a7-28e6-416e-ae97-475403570fea-0
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:37.130
Under cold work,
it's broken down into hollow bars which

c32ac2a7-28e6-416e-ae97-475403570fea-1
00:28:37.130 --> 00:28:41.005
we just covered and then suitable for use
in boilers, etcetera,

c32ac2a7-28e6-416e-ae97-475403570fea-2
00:28:41.005 --> 00:28:42.640
which we also just covered.

e213e42a-d411-43dd-9866-cede10035884-0
00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:46.120
And then other than suitable for use in
boilers.

39ae2495-4c07-4e1a-949c-001be8330465-0
00:28:47.160 --> 00:28:50.006
If you if your pipe is other than cold
work,

39ae2495-4c07-4e1a-949c-001be8330465-1
00:28:50.006 --> 00:28:55.131
it's also broken down by suitable for use
in boilers and other than suitable for

39ae2495-4c07-4e1a-949c-001be8330465-2
00:28:55.131 --> 00:28:56.080
use in boilers.

6001736a-ae11-408a-af37-faf4a03caabf-0
00:28:56.840 --> 00:28:59.471
If the pipes are suitable for use in
boilers,

6001736a-ae11-408a-af37-faf4a03caabf-1
00:28:59.471 --> 00:29:01.760
they're broken down by outside diameter.

496ce989-6dcb-4ad4-bde2-c0bb55223658-0
00:29:02.520 --> 00:29:06.680
If they are other than suitable for use
in boilers,

496ce989-6dcb-4ad4-bde2-c0bb55223658-1
00:29:06.680 --> 00:29:09.240
they can be found on this slide.

4e826194-2851-4df4-819d-dd2b2be2a553-0
00:29:09.480 --> 00:29:13.844
And although this slide looks horrible
and daunting, remember one,

4e826194-2851-4df4-819d-dd2b2be2a553-1
00:29:13.844 --> 00:29:17.361
I'm not reading it to you and two,
if you look at it,

4e826194-2851-4df4-819d-dd2b2be2a553-2
00:29:17.361 --> 00:29:19.120
it looks pretty consistent.

44cb29ed-69df-4beb-83a5-13db660143d1-0
00:29:20.200 --> 00:29:24.525
So if you're non-alloy steel pipe or tube
is other than cold work and it's not

44cb29ed-69df-4beb-83a5-13db660143d1-1
00:29:24.525 --> 00:29:25.480
suitable for use

37c28b0d-5922-4227-8235-ee2d8bf42013-0
00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:28.788
in boilers,
it's going to fall under this other.

37c28b0d-5922-4227-8235-ee2d8bf42013-1
00:29:28.788 --> 00:29:32.681
Under this other,
they're divided into galvanized and other

37c28b0d-5922-4227-8235-ee2d8bf42013-2
00:29:32.681 --> 00:29:33.720
than galvanized.

d958c48c-7089-4b93-a2bb-98c6711c58d7-0
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:37.896
If it's not galvanized,
then it's just simply broken down by

d958c48c-7089-4b93-a2bb-98c6711c58d7-1
00:29:37.896 --> 00:29:39.960
outside diameter and wall thickness.

e06c0f7e-a635-4069-aeef-f094cd4b2453-0
00:29:40.760 --> 00:29:45.960
So while there are a lot of breakouts,
at least they're logical breakouts.

928145cb-a9db-4926-ad2c-2271f3603737-0
00:29:49.280 --> 00:29:54.095
So then we move on to the second section
under pipes of circular cross section,

928145cb-a9db-4926-ad2c-2271f3603737-1
00:29:54.095 --> 00:29:55.600
which is stainless steel.

603809c5-aebd-4410-a3ca-a7cdacd98ed5-0
00:29:56.640 --> 00:30:00.829
And there's a new term that we need to
define and that is high nickel alloy

603809c5-aebd-4410-a3ca-a7cdacd98ed5-1
00:30:00.829 --> 00:30:01.160
steel.

83f7165f-351d-4173-a00a-44f6a3395f4f-0
00:30:01.760 --> 00:30:04.100
And like so many other terms in Chapter
73,

83f7165f-351d-4173-a00a-44f6a3395f4f-1
00:30:04.100 --> 00:30:07.080
we're going to go to Chapter 72 to get
this definition.

ba5ade2e-8948-4ac1-8a96-5c9fa7f8ea67-0
00:30:08.000 --> 00:30:11.725
And it's found in Chapter 72,
Statistical Note 1,

ba5ade2e-8948-4ac1-8a96-5c9fa7f8ea67-1
00:30:11.725 --> 00:30:15.748
which states for the purposes of the
tariff schedule,

ba5ade2e-8948-4ac1-8a96-5c9fa7f8ea67-2
00:30:15.748 --> 00:30:21.335
the expression high nickel alloy steel
refers to alloy steel containing by

ba5ade2e-8948-4ac1-8a96-5c9fa7f8ea67-3
00:30:21.335 --> 00:30:25.880
weight 24% or more of nickel with or
without other elements.

3853ea62-5d67-47dc-9a84-098f4109cce8-0
00:30:27.120 --> 00:30:30.964
I also want you to note on this slide
that the breakouts here are very

3853ea62-5d67-47dc-9a84-098f4109cce8-1
00:30:30.964 --> 00:30:31.560
consistent.

36d78515-6bca-4b7c-ae66-5631567d0088-0
00:30:32.840 --> 00:30:36.280
It's either cold drawn or it's either
cold worked or it's not.

f4d980f8-ef3f-4271-a02f-cf5082d97676-0
00:30:37.360 --> 00:30:40.621
If it is,
it's goes by outside diameter high nickel

f4d980f8-ef3f-4271-a02f-cf5082d97676-1
00:30:40.621 --> 00:30:42.440
alloy still suitable for use

261ac1ca-f673-4579-a71e-137aa7641742-0
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:46.592
in boilers. If it's other than its high
nickel alloy,

261ac1ca-f673-4579-a71e-137aa7641742-1
00:30:46.592 --> 00:30:49.160
still suitable for use in boilers.

64234d50-6eaa-4c25-a951-7023a6d35e9d-0
00:30:49.560 --> 00:30:53.558
So while they did throw in those hollow
bars in the high nickel alloy,

64234d50-6eaa-4c25-a951-7023a6d35e9d-1
00:30:53.558 --> 00:30:55.360
this order is nice and lined up.

d2cacbe5-421a-4c55-8fcb-a22243d2feea-0
00:30:59.440 --> 00:31:05.101
So before we move to the next section,
there are a couple more definitions that

d2cacbe5-421a-4c55-8fcb-a22243d2feea-1
00:31:05.101 --> 00:31:07.720
we need to get again from Chapter 72.

2b478dee-bceb-45a7-a3df-8db8e2533a04-0
00:31:09.160 --> 00:31:16.286
And the first one is ball bearing steel,
and that is an alloy tool steel that

2b478dee-bceb-45a7-a3df-8db8e2533a04-1
00:31:16.286 --> 00:31:22.316
contains in addition to iron,
some very specific percentages of a

2b478dee-bceb-45a7-a3df-8db8e2533a04-2
00:31:22.316 --> 00:31:25.240
number of different chemistries.

148e704a-0ca6-4701-9777-d578b05d1ca1-0
00:31:25.680 --> 00:31:30.951
So when you go to look this up,
it's in Chapter 72 Additional U.S. Note 1(h)

148e704a-0ca6-4701-9777-d578b05d1ca1-1
00:31:30.951 --> 00:31:36.583
and I'm not going to read this to you
because none of us is going to remember

148e704a-0ca6-4701-9777-d578b05d1ca1-2
00:31:36.583 --> 00:31:36.800
it.

aa27eb52-f00b-4e8d-a41b-e5f3698ad4fc-0
00:31:36.800 --> 00:31:39.947
I just want you to know where you can
find it so that you can make that

aa27eb52-f00b-4e8d-a41b-e5f3698ad4fc-1
00:31:39.947 --> 00:31:40.560
determination.

66bb5292-cae1-4c66-b2e3-e360d6f9ae5c-0
00:31:44.040 --> 00:31:49.169
The second definition that we need to
know is heat resisting steel,

66bb5292-cae1-4c66-b2e3-e360d6f9ae5c-1
00:31:49.169 --> 00:31:54.600
again from Chapter 72 and that is in
Chapter 72, Additional U.S. Note 1(g).

e8d71c93-debd-4dd1-a57e-4d870c3c101f-0
00:31:55.120 --> 00:32:01.420
And that's an alloy steel that contains
by weight less than 0.3%

e8d71c93-debd-4dd1-a57e-4d870c3c101f-1
00:32:01.420 --> 00:32:07.520
of carbon and 4% or more but less than
10.5% of chromium.

9754b1b5-8dc9-43fa-8470-7185e8e2444e-0
00:32:08.320 --> 00:32:14.864
And it's also known as high temperature
steel and is a type of alloy designed to

9754b1b5-8dc9-43fa-8470-7185e8e2444e-1
00:32:14.864 --> 00:32:20.440
withstand high temperatures,
typically between 500 and 1,150 Celsius.

a2ffdc18-0d1b-4ead-9a4b-c9933ede3403-0
00:32:20.840 --> 00:32:23.659
And it's used in industries like power
generation,

a2ffdc18-0d1b-4ead-9a4b-c9933ede3403-1
00:32:23.659 --> 00:32:25.760
chemical processing and manufacturing.

fcc0ed97-cf3c-4a6d-bc88-3b334503fea9-0
00:32:26.680 --> 00:32:31.114
So let's go ahead and head into this
second section,

fcc0ed97-cf3c-4a6d-bc88-3b334503fea9-1
00:32:31.114 --> 00:32:34.880
circular cross section of other alloy
steel.

5fc93dde-b03a-423f-b0cd-a6ea17d37f4f-0
00:32:36.560 --> 00:32:41.577
The alloy steel is further broken down
into cold worked and other than cold

5fc93dde-b03a-423f-b0cd-a6ea17d37f4f-1
00:32:41.577 --> 00:32:42.040
worked.

f8ab9598-9a6f-4443-ad83-3df374172829-0
00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:46.200
If it is cold worked,
it's broken down by steel type.

74e04729-b34f-468f-8b6a-5b1c3d531c18-0
00:32:47.080 --> 00:32:51.028
If it is other than cold work,
then it's broken down by steel type and

74e04729-b34f-468f-8b6a-5b1c3d531c18-1
00:32:51.028 --> 00:32:52.920
in certain cases outside diameter.

5c16e55f-230a-480b-a731-137e493d2a9d-0
00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:59.708
Please note that the other, other, other,
breakouts are based on outside diameter

5c16e55f-230a-480b-a731-137e493d2a9d-1
00:32:59.708 --> 00:33:01.760
only and not wall thickness.

a207d2a8-caa1-4d02-a291-e49b8f2ca333-0
00:33:02.840 --> 00:33:05.680
The breakouts here are continued on the
next slide.

bf61b42a-700d-4726-860a-2dff13505bcc-0
00:33:06.440 --> 00:33:12.560
So if the pipe is other than suitable for
use in boilers, again, don't panic.

c7de35e5-c257-47df-a6ad-86dbc466f63f-0
00:33:12.640 --> 00:33:14.280
You know by now I'm not going to read it
to you.

b9af9d2e-ee25-42c1-866d-c185df68ff09-0
00:33:15.080 --> 00:33:19.113
I just want you to know that these are
broken down by whether they are heat

b9af9d2e-ee25-42c1-866d-c185df68ff09-1
00:33:19.113 --> 00:33:21.502
resisting steel,
which we just talked about,

b9af9d2e-ee25-42c1-866d-c185df68ff09-2
00:33:21.502 --> 00:33:23.360
or other than heat resisting steel.

f933c812-397e-43c7-b1a6-6709de34cd7a-0
00:33:24.120 --> 00:33:27.790
If they are not heat resisting steel,
they're just simply broken down by

f933c812-397e-43c7-b1a6-6709de34cd7a-1
00:33:27.790 --> 00:33:29.600
outside diameter and wall thickness.

e600ac1a-c985-437b-85d3-a95c855f577c-0
00:33:30.600 --> 00:33:36.280
So that finishes off the second part of
other pipes of circular cross section.

82c0e753-0a4a-48e1-bc6f-844594cc504c-0
00:33:36.280 --> 00:33:38.440
And let's head into the last one.

f565d194-a902-46b1-b97e-13215d254e0a-0
00:33:38.960 --> 00:33:42.920
And we are so close to being done with
Heading 7304.

2146e9fa-af55-4416-8d8a-cf43aa20c7f0-0
00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:48.071
We have just this one last section to
cover and that is other than line pipe,

2146e9fa-af55-4416-8d8a-cf43aa20c7f0-1
00:33:48.071 --> 00:33:51.224
other than casing,
tubing and drill pipe, and other than

2146e9fa-af55-4416-8d8a-cf43aa20c7f0-2
00:33:51.224 --> 00:33:52.519
circular cross section.

5d4f4525-1afe-46e2-8af5-faae8f33add0-0
00:33:52.840 --> 00:33:57.602
And I think you will be very happy when
you see this next slide because this next

5d4f4525-1afe-46e2-8af5-faae8f33add0-1
00:33:57.602 --> 00:33:58.880
section is very short.

ed0ae8b0-a93d-42d7-a5aa-0016ba20cdaa-0
00:34:00.560 --> 00:34:07.401
It is simply broken down by whether the
wall thickness is 4mm or more or less

ed0ae8b0-a93d-42d7-a5aa-0016ba20cdaa-1
00:34:07.401 --> 00:34:12.840
than 4mm and then by non-alloy or alloy
short, logical, easy.

24b02c9d-4d81-48c4-90da-d75066128b26-0
00:34:14.000 --> 00:34:18.668
So we are finally done with Heading 7304
breakdowns. Tubes,

24b02c9d-4d81-48c4-90da-d75066128b26-1
00:34:18.668 --> 00:34:24.240
pipes and hollow profiles seamless of
iron other than cast iron or steel.

47ad7a7d-f87a-4ea2-a8fa-1a1d17da6065-0
00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:28.880
So I'm going to do a quick and dirty
recap.

47dc2f7b-5731-4845-a5ff-aa1305349923-0
00:34:29.200 --> 00:34:30.880
That was a lot of information.

f00d341b-5261-4543-8054-5b300ec40397-0
00:34:32.080 --> 00:34:36.667
So heading 7304 is broken down into
four sections, line pipe,

f00d341b-5261-4543-8054-5b300ec40397-1
00:34:36.667 --> 00:34:41.900
casing, tubing and drill pipe of a kind
used for drilling for oil or gas,

f00d341b-5261-4543-8054-5b300ec40397-2
00:34:41.900 --> 00:34:46.560
other pipes of circular cross section and
other under line pipe.

eaa4eb72-1e2e-471d-a9e3-7c8a9e189733-0
00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:50.128
The headings are further divided into
stainless steel,

eaa4eb72-1e2e-471d-a9e3-7c8a9e189733-1
00:34:50.128 --> 00:34:54.380
non-alloy steel and other alloy steel
quite logically and under casing,

eaa4eb72-1e2e-471d-a9e3-7c8a9e189733-2
00:34:54.380 --> 00:34:55.680
tubing and drill pipe.

35ccfa30-08cc-41bb-bb95-8c6073601cef-0
00:34:56.240 --> 00:35:01.992
The subheadings get further divided in a
very illogical manner into drill pipe,

35ccfa30-08cc-41bb-bb95-8c6073601cef-1
00:35:01.992 --> 00:35:07.384
stainless steel casing and then tubing.
Under other pipes of circular cross

35ccfa30-08cc-41bb-bb95-8c6073601cef-2
00:35:07.384 --> 00:35:07.959
section,

5cdd3ba2-d849-425f-8195-63341265915c-0
00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:13.089
the subheading is divided into cold
worked and other than cold worked and

5cdd3ba2-d849-425f-8195-63341265915c-1
00:35:13.089 --> 00:35:18.357
other than under other than lump,
I can't speak. Under other than line pipe,

5cdd3ba2-d849-425f-8195-63341265915c-2
00:35:18.357 --> 00:35:21.200
other than casing, tubing and drill pipe.

be7eb258-3361-4ef9-bf66-80996374a236-0
00:35:21.640 --> 00:35:26.855
Other than a circular cross section,
the subheading is simply divided into

be7eb258-3361-4ef9-bf66-80996374a236-1
00:35:26.855 --> 00:35:32.280
wall thickness equal to or greater than
4mm and wall thickness less than 4mm.

99729aef-69bb-4602-bd5e-6f8efbc28a21-0
00:35:33.240 --> 00:35:38.312
Most of the sections are further divided
by outside diameter and wall thickness

99729aef-69bb-4602-bd5e-6f8efbc28a21-1
00:35:38.312 --> 00:35:43.257
with a few odd breakouts here and there
like high nickel alloy heat resisting

99729aef-69bb-4602-bd5e-6f8efbc28a21-2
00:35:43.257 --> 00:35:45.920
steel, ball bearing steel and hollow bars.

33451fc9-c87f-4925-90c1-2552ae3c22e8-0
00:35:47.960 --> 00:35:49.680
OK, it's time to take a breather.

492432b0-9556-4dd2-acf9-31d613bfe098-0
00:35:54.640 --> 00:35:57.120
Just go ahead and take a couple of
breaths and clear your head.

53aef6df-dc39-46d1-9e77-3c4d51661133-0
00:35:58.040 --> 00:36:03.106
We still have two headings to do,
but we have the most complicated one and

53aef6df-dc39-46d1-9e77-3c4d51661133-1
00:36:03.106 --> 00:36:05.200
the longest one out of the way.

6515f34e-b2c3-4e80-84ef-83503a30995c-0
00:36:08.440 --> 00:36:12.080
OK, so let's look at how 7305 reads.

330e4e3b-ea05-4f2d-9993-176432b97e35-0
00:36:12.680 --> 00:36:17.000
It reads other tubes and pipes,
for example welded,

330e4e3b-ea05-4f2d-9993-176432b97e35-1
00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:21.984
riveted or similarly closed having
circular cross sections,

330e4e3b-ea05-4f2d-9993-176432b97e35-2
00:36:21.984 --> 00:36:27.800
the external diameter of which exceeds
406.4 mm of iron or steel.

4744ab05-8821-4322-b22c-e73a21584b63-0
00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:33.000
So the pipes or tubes here have to be
welded, riveted or similarly closed.

f9905fc7-53bc-443d-bb91-b1316422452f-0
00:36:33.960 --> 00:36:40.876
They have to have circular cross sections
and the outside diameter has to exceed

f9905fc7-53bc-443d-bb91-b1316422452f-1
00:36:40.876 --> 00:36:41.560
406.4 mm.

0da2ec00-8fa1-478c-bdaa-f42523c8b2d8-0
00:36:42.240 --> 00:36:47.231
And I mentioned earlier the inconsistency
and the tariff schedule concerning

0da2ec00-8fa1-478c-bdaa-f42523c8b2d8-1
00:36:47.231 --> 00:36:49.760
external diameter and outside diameter.

2010ee54-3150-4299-bd94-f890d6631fda-0
00:36:50.320 --> 00:36:52.720
My ruling sticks to the term outside
diameter.

f38af514-e56d-4193-a97f-9204f154edb3-0
00:36:52.720 --> 00:36:56.360
So that's what you will hear me say
unless I'm citing the tariff schedule.

e0c25413-a3f7-4656-83dc-68f72e5b34cd-0
00:36:59.040 --> 00:37:02.162
As usual,
we have to start with the explanatory

e0c25413-a3f7-4656-83dc-68f72e5b34cd-1
00:37:02.162 --> 00:37:05.935
notes that talk about some of the ways
that pipes, tubes,

e0c25413-a3f7-4656-83dc-68f72e5b34cd-2
00:37:05.935 --> 00:37:11.269
and hollow profiles of heading 7305
are produced just like they did for

e0c25413-a3f7-4656-83dc-68f72e5b34cd-3
00:37:11.269 --> 00:37:11.400
7304.

6ab1b890-b13e-4008-b418-e32090cb63b1-0
00:37:12.800 --> 00:37:17.353
So the ENs talk about producing pipes
and tubes longitudinally and spirally,

6ab1b890-b13e-4008-b418-e32090cb63b1-1
00:37:17.353 --> 00:37:21.964
as well as some of the ways that the
pipes and tubes can be closed by riveting

6ab1b890-b13e-4008-b418-e32090cb63b1-2
00:37:21.964 --> 00:37:22.840
and by welding.

a1e46604-0869-48c2-96ea-c4fa5db48638-0
00:37:23.920 --> 00:37:29.753
The explanatory notes also indicate that
line pipe casing and tubing for oil or

a1e46604-0869-48c2-96ea-c4fa5db48638-1
00:37:29.753 --> 00:37:32.160
gas wells can be classified here.

f5fa767f-1aa6-46d1-82aa-a4f25cbd0228-0
00:37:32.760 --> 00:37:36.800
I want you to know that drill pipe is not
included here.

1acd633f-8347-4251-b890-0e667ac8259c-0
00:37:37.280 --> 00:37:40.480
Drill pipe is always seamless.

e9f899e8-48f9-4996-9ff9-2df7213a9022-0
00:37:44.320 --> 00:37:48.196
For those of you who have never had the
opportunity to go to a pipe mill,

e9f899e8-48f9-4996-9ff9-2df7213a9022-1
00:37:48.196 --> 00:37:52.334
or who just can't wrap your head around
how a flat piece of steel can become a

e9f899e8-48f9-4996-9ff9-2df7213a9022-2
00:37:52.334 --> 00:37:53.120
pipe or a tube.

78f0c0d8-4178-4402-91e1-b5af8d185321-0
00:37:53.840 --> 00:37:59.116
For longitudinally welded pipe,
it's simply a series of rollers that the

78f0c0d8-4178-4402-91e1-b5af8d185321-1
00:37:59.116 --> 00:38:04.898
flat sheet of steel progresses through
that get it that curl the sheet of steel

78f0c0d8-4178-4402-91e1-b5af8d185321-2
00:38:04.898 --> 00:38:08.440
just slightly more with each progressive
roller.

e2a72cb2-2f49-4d38-9551-d5a49d8292ce-0
00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:13.061
So each station bends the heated steel
just a little bit more until the two

e2a72cb2-2f49-4d38-9551-d5a49d8292ce-1
00:38:13.061 --> 00:38:16.840
sides or the edges of the sheet meet at
either the top or the bottom.

e510ce9e-d149-4f5a-b7ba-097dbe681070-0
00:38:17.720 --> 00:38:21.612
The open seamed pipe then runs through a
welding station where it's welded

e510ce9e-d149-4f5a-b7ba-097dbe681070-1
00:38:21.612 --> 00:38:22.080
together.

56c0ce3c-db6f-4163-a81e-dc63d487eb26-0
00:38:24.160 --> 00:38:29.275
Spirally welded pipe or tube starts out
the same way as a flat sheet of steel,

56c0ce3c-db6f-4163-a81e-dc63d487eb26-1
00:38:29.275 --> 00:38:34.260
but instead of simply bringing the two
edges together to weld them in a seam

56c0ce3c-db6f-4163-a81e-dc63d487eb26-2
00:38:34.260 --> 00:38:37.886
longitudinally,
the sheet is passed through a series of

56c0ce3c-db6f-4163-a81e-dc63d487eb26-3
00:38:37.886 --> 00:38:42.160
rollers at a specific angle that can
allow for a larger diameter.

913400f6-3980-46f0-832f-dd0d5b181e12-0
00:38:42.960 --> 00:38:48.034
Welding on these types of pipes is
usually performed as the sheet progresses

913400f6-3980-46f0-832f-dd0d5b181e12-1
00:38:48.034 --> 00:38:51.000
in order for the pipe to maintain its
shape.

9d21c615-84f1-4760-9889-aee2143ce1c3-0
00:38:51.720 --> 00:38:56.932
And since I know there are so many people
who have not made it to a pipe mill,

9d21c615-84f1-4760-9889-aee2143ce1c3-1
00:38:56.932 --> 00:38:58.120
I do have a video.

4b952d28-82cf-4641-969e-5d90aeeb48c0-0
00:38:58.280 --> 00:38:59.600
I actually have two videos.

1e3a21de-1905-4aa3-9924-f10f906b5fbe-0
00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:02.040
The first one is electric resistance
welding.

4fc02a1c-dee6-4031-8155-93caebb461bf-0
00:39:02.840 --> 00:39:06.663
It's where the metal parts are
permanently joined by heating them with

4fc02a1c-dee6-4031-8155-93caebb461bf-1
00:39:06.663 --> 00:39:09.680
an electric current which melts the metal
at the joint.

f85ecf20-ae2f-42be-93a9-df7a3bea8a58-0
00:39:22.240 --> 00:39:31.691
So you can see that the metal is being
curled just a little bit more each time

f85ecf20-ae2f-42be-93a9-df7a3bea8a58-1
00:39:31.691 --> 00:39:38.510
it passes a roller.
And now you see the electric current

f85ecf20-ae2f-42be-93a9-df7a3bea8a58-2
00:39:38.510 --> 00:39:48.320
that's coming through that will be passed
through the edges and start to weld it.

40130035-3a0f-47ae-8659-5b3f9d1f2cfb-0
00:40:07.560 --> 00:40:12.821
The electric current can also be passed
around the outside to go through the

40130035-3a0f-47ae-8659-5b3f9d1f2cfb-1
00:40:12.821 --> 00:40:14.120
inside of the pipe.

7771a6c1-7d90-43f7-83ca-5a78ca0c5b0b-0
00:40:53.760 --> 00:41:00.240
Sometimes it will leave a weld bead and
what you just saw was the part that

7771a6c1-7d90-43f7-83ca-5a78ca0c5b0b-1
00:41:00.240 --> 00:41:05.360
scrapes off the weld bead.
So then the pipes are sent through a

7771a6c1-7d90-43f7-83ca-5a78ca0c5b0b-2
00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:05.920
quench.

149adbad-8b50-4e98-babc-745016aae9b7-0
00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:24.360
And then they go through a number of
different testing.

304a3ec5-0c6d-4c3c-ac2a-23869c87fbac-0
00:41:30.770 --> 00:41:32.370
All right, I'm going to stop it there.

759e7cb7-b3b5-4816-9503-7c4540b1dea0-0
00:41:36.450 --> 00:41:40.209
The next type of welding is submerged arc
welding,

759e7cb7-b3b5-4816-9503-7c4540b1dea0-1
00:41:40.209 --> 00:41:45.516
which is an when an electric arc is
formed between the workpiece and an

759e7cb7-b3b5-4816-9503-7c4540b1dea0-2
00:41:45.516 --> 00:41:48.981
electrode.
The arc and the molten weld pool are

759e7cb7-b3b5-4816-9503-7c4540b1dea0-3
00:41:48.981 --> 00:41:53.920
submerged in a blanket of granular
fusible flux on the workpiece.

5ed08261-3855-4540-8e1f-6541f538418d-0
00:41:54.200 --> 00:41:57.791
And I know that that wasn't very
descriptive,

5ed08261-3855-4540-8e1f-6541f538418d-1
00:41:57.791 --> 00:42:02.320
so I'm going to do this video,
which is very, very short.

a7bc5ac0-0301-486b-a86a-3d2c08c8c2d3-0
00:42:02.320 --> 00:42:10.117
You can see it's being welded spirally
and you can see the granular pool there

a7bc5ac0-0301-486b-a86a-3d2c08c8c2d3-1
00:42:10.117 --> 00:42:17.520
and you can see that this is a flat sheet
that's being rolled on an angle.

0b542aea-2212-459d-ab96-372d889484f1-0
00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:34.543
OK, so the explanatory notes,
the heading 73.05 include what should be

0b542aea-2212-459d-ab96-372d889484f1-1
00:42:34.543 --> 00:42:37.920
some very familiar exclusions.

334d7a91-b995-44ab-b49f-eae0159cb164-0
00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:43.857
If the pipe or tube has been modified to be
more than just a pipe or tube,

334d7a91-b995-44ab-b49f-eae0159cb164-1
00:42:43.857 --> 00:42:49.483
it is a specific identifiable article,
then it cannot be classified as a pipe or

334d7a91-b995-44ab-b49f-eae0159cb164-2
00:42:49.483 --> 00:42:49.840
tube.

50ff97b5-77ce-4e25-adf8-d3930926f26c-0
00:42:50.360 --> 00:42:55.904
So you see the exclusions up there for
all of the headings except for 73.05. So

50ff97b5-77ce-4e25-adf8-d3930926f26c-1
00:42:55.904 --> 00:43:00.746
73.03 through 73.07 and then the
flexible tubing and the insulated

50ff97b5-77ce-4e25-adf8-d3930926f26c-2
00:43:00.746 --> 00:43:02.080
electrical conduit.

4fb78a39-27ec-47d8-a41b-f77ab1b29579-0
00:43:03.520 --> 00:43:08.007
So although for example,
the image on the left is a bent drilled

4fb78a39-27ec-47d8-a41b-f77ab1b29579-1
00:43:08.007 --> 00:43:13.047
pipe that has been fitted with flanges,
and although those processes are

4fb78a39-27ec-47d8-a41b-f77ab1b29579-2
00:43:13.047 --> 00:43:17.742
allowable and the article can still be
considered a pipe or a tube,

4fb78a39-27ec-47d8-a41b-f77ab1b29579-3
00:43:17.742 --> 00:43:22.920
in this specific set of facts the holes
were drilled for specific purpose,

c594a569-f464-493d-9e6b-b361065ab6b4-0
00:43:23.600 --> 00:43:30.204
the tube was bent to specific angles to
attach to a specific system in a specific

c594a569-f464-493d-9e6b-b361065ab6b4-1
00:43:30.204 --> 00:43:34.955
make of automobile,
which makes it a specific identifiable

c594a569-f464-493d-9e6b-b361065ab6b4-2
00:43:34.955 --> 00:43:35.600
article.

5cbc1416-6a1e-45a8-9c35-b7bfdc5837db-0
00:43:35.800 --> 00:43:38.560
How many times can we say specific on one
slide?

47017c99-18f5-4e75-aee1-120246520844-0
00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:44.240
The same is for the image on the right,
although it can't be a pipe or tube because

47017c99-18f5-4e75-aee1-120246520844-1
00:43:44.240 --> 00:43:47.720
it has more than one enclosed void where
it branches off.

4ce12ec9-6e7c-4e4f-b68a-d5cf78092107-0
00:43:48.680 --> 00:43:54.594
It also can't be a hollow profile because
this specific set of facts says that it

4ce12ec9-6e7c-4e4f-b68a-d5cf78092107-1
00:43:54.594 --> 00:44:00.148
is bent to a specific configuration,
again for specific model of automobile,

4ce12ec9-6e7c-4e4f-b68a-d5cf78092107-2
00:44:00.148 --> 00:44:02.240
a specific automobile system,

20975df4-7b11-42de-8f4a-f1b378120630-0
00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:04.920
so it's a specific identifiable article.

ab3880d2-0113-4658-b0e9-0a91639e2538-0
00:44:08.000 --> 00:44:11.102
OK,
so let's look at how heading 7305 is

ab3880d2-0113-4658-b0e9-0a91639e2538-1
00:44:11.102 --> 00:44:11.680
divided.

2fb8f50c-51de-42dc-b024-a7b0bb0b66cd-0
00:44:12.120 --> 00:44:15.880
It's divided into four sections that should
look very familiar.

62f1dec7-39de-4dd5-9803-ae7dfc6519b2-0
00:44:16.520 --> 00:44:22.257
It's divided into line pipe casing or two,
sorry, casing, other,

62f1dec7-39de-4dd5-9803-ae7dfc6519b2-1
00:44:22.257 --> 00:44:24.200
welded and then other.

a5cd80cb-bcc1-467d-82a8-994479981fe6-0
00:44:25.760 --> 00:44:27.280
So let's go ahead and jump right in.

36565ed1-9bc4-4952-9f97-f2102a089f99-0
00:44:28.560 --> 00:44:31.480
So this makes my little OCD heart really
really happy.

e4aaa14a-41dd-4e63-89ac-52d8d190a996-0
00:44:32.160 --> 00:44:35.640
Every subheading breakout is orderly and
identically formatted.

e952284f-af6e-4c56-b7c4-a7bf93def7ce-0
00:44:35.840 --> 00:44:40.840
They even have the same numbering for the
classifications 1030, 1060 and 5000.

ddb92f97-1a89-4ab1-836b-258479cfeea7-0
00:44:41.560 --> 00:44:44.796
So spoiler alert,
the rest of this entire heading is just

ddb92f97-1a89-4ab1-836b-258479cfeea7-1
00:44:44.796 --> 00:44:46.080
as calming as this one.

64d6d30d-ca06-4367-8ba1-ad2f15744be6-0
00:44:48.960 --> 00:44:55.270
So as we go from line pipe, you just need
to know whether or not it is alloy or non-

64d6d30d-ca06-4367-8ba1-ad2f15744be6-1
00:44:55.270 --> 00:44:59.680
alloy steel and whether or not it is
threaded or coupled.

3eed5d7f-7b17-44f7-9d77-bae1964a2fd1-0
00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:06.120
The third section is really easy too.

62df4863-3ee7-4010-bd54-6f3a3eb5382d-0
00:45:06.440 --> 00:45:09.245
Other than the illuminating articles
oddball,

62df4863-3ee7-4010-bd54-6f3a3eb5382d-1
00:45:09.245 --> 00:45:13.757
it's really straightforward and I
personally have never received a ruling

62df4863-3ee7-4010-bd54-6f3a3eb5382d-2
00:45:13.757 --> 00:45:18.697
request where I had to consider whether a
pipe was a quote tapered pipe of steel

62df4863-3ee7-4010-bd54-6f3a3eb5382d-3
00:45:18.697 --> 00:45:22.600
principally used as a part of an
illuminating article end quote,

795728a8-c8ba-4af4-abad-355154906236-0
00:45:23.000 --> 00:45:28.330
so I had to go look it up and CROSS. New
York ruling H81358 describes these

795728a8-c8ba-4af4-abad-355154906236-1
00:45:28.330 --> 00:45:33.942
simply as tapered steel pipes that are
used to support lighting for large areas

795728a8-c8ba-4af4-abad-355154906236-2
00:45:33.942 --> 00:45:37.800
like sporting events, arenas,
and even traffic lights.

b03139d9-e4b0-43e9-ab71-e5fe9feaddbe-0
00:45:38.320 --> 00:45:42.115
So while it's not overly obvious in this
image on the slide,

b03139d9-e4b0-43e9-ab71-e5fe9feaddbe-1
00:45:42.115 --> 00:45:46.906
if you look on the right hand side,
it is wider on the end than it is on the

b03139d9-e4b0-43e9-ab71-e5fe9feaddbe-2
00:45:46.906 --> 00:45:47.840
left hand side.

e711a5c5-f52f-4c3b-8d8c-a417e2fbec6a-0
00:45:48.320 --> 00:45:53.200
So this the pole that's holding the
traffic lights horizontally is tapered.

cc63dc83-0fbc-483c-a8a1-93fd9794739d-0
00:45:56.360 --> 00:46:00.280
The last section of heading 7305 is
super easy.

92097aba-2b73-4bd2-8411-52fdbc2ef686-0
00:46:00.680 --> 00:46:05.360
It is just alloy or non-alloy steel.

b6e5a5ab-7311-4b39-844a-24790361b71d-0
00:46:10.400 --> 00:46:14.040
So let's do a really quick recap of
Heading 7305.

aa3be174-c1ed-46cb-9f8d-55ec7ea99eeb-0
00:46:15.480 --> 00:46:19.200
Heading 7305 wasn't nearly as bad as
Heading 7304.

3e064086-a234-4e32-8d15-141eabb468cd-0
00:46:20.080 --> 00:46:24.969
Line pipe and other welded pipe are
broken down by how they were welded,

3e064086-a234-4e32-8d15-141eabb468cd-1
00:46:24.969 --> 00:46:28.520
while casing and other are broken down by
chemistry.

a9068dbc-5e42-4319-ab9c-d18d1d3788bc-0
00:46:30.040 --> 00:46:33.520
So let's keep going and let's get into
our last heading.

fdeed734-6959-467d-9a8f-768df4fee5e6-0
00:46:35.920 --> 00:46:40.332
When you first read heading 7306,
which says other tubes, pipes,

fdeed734-6959-467d-9a8f-768df4fee5e6-1
00:46:40.332 --> 00:46:44.283
for example, welded,
riveted or similarly closed of iron or

fdeed734-6959-467d-9a8f-768df4fee5e6-2
00:46:44.283 --> 00:46:47.379
steel,
it should sound very similar to Heading

fdeed734-6959-467d-9a8f-768df4fee5e6-3
00:46:47.379 --> 00:46:47.840
7305.

a959df6c-2674-4ea7-b614-13e779231beb-0
00:46:48.520 --> 00:46:52.702
But I want you to notice that there is no
mention of outside diameter nor does it

a959df6c-2674-4ea7-b614-13e779231beb-1
00:46:52.702 --> 00:46:54.640
have to have a circular cross section.

b0184b98-057c-455a-b7ac-7fc0cf5a7aad-0
00:46:55.600 --> 00:46:59.523
Obviously, if these pipes,
tubes and hollow profiles are of a

b0184b98-057c-455a-b7ac-7fc0cf5a7aad-1
00:46:59.523 --> 00:47:03.447
circular cross section,
they're not going to exceed a diameter of

b0184b98-057c-455a-b7ac-7fc0cf5a7aad-2
00:47:03.447 --> 00:47:06.360
four O 6.
4mm or they fall under Heading 7305.

15458950-786d-4a29-abf8-746c21933d68-0
00:47:09.040 --> 00:47:14.815
The ENs to 7306 tell us that the
provisions in 7305 also apply to 7306

15458950-786d-4a29-abf8-746c21933d68-1
00:47:14.815 --> 00:47:17.440
along with the necessary exchanges.

fda42a02-d09a-40cd-937d-77f4a647054b-0
00:47:18.360 --> 00:47:23.080
And they also talk about but welded pipes
and pipes that are joined by clipping.

c2641faf-d14e-40bf-8ef2-1d4cf996d159-0
00:47:23.760 --> 00:47:27.880
And I want to bring your attention to #2
in the explanatory notes.

bf69fe63-34fe-4aa5-8dec-82522be08f45-0
00:47:28.800 --> 00:47:36.069
The pipe can have an open seam,
but if that open seam runs the whole

bf69fe63-34fe-4aa5-8dec-82522be08f45-1
00:47:36.069 --> 00:47:41.864
length of the pipe,
then it is considered a section in

bf69fe63-34fe-4aa5-8dec-82522be08f45-2
00:47:41.864 --> 00:47:44.919
Heading 72.16 or 72.22 or 72.28.

d38898b6-cf8b-4e53-a7f0-f49da6a34753-0
00:47:49.240 --> 00:47:51.720
And here we are with our familiar
exclusions again.

563d3ef5-de24-444e-ba37-d894a8291b4d-0
00:47:51.720 --> 00:47:55.040
This time we've just swapped them out for
7306.

de73f7c8-f606-475b-b988-8502fb91a8ea-0
00:47:56.400 --> 00:47:59.280
So is everybody ready to get into our
last heading?

354f6888-1ba1-49bb-b2c8-8f53327ff4c5-0
00:48:02.680 --> 00:48:05.564
OK,
I broke down heading 7306 into seven

354f6888-1ba1-49bb-b2c8-8f53327ff4c5-1
00:48:05.564 --> 00:48:11.480
numbered parts because it's easier for me
to keep up with if I can number them.

d1a79428-7cb4-468c-82e4-7a36ea10c36a-0
00:48:12.240 --> 00:48:15.838
So most of these are really short
breakouts, but there are a couple,

d1a79428-7cb4-468c-82e4-7a36ea10c36a-1
00:48:15.838 --> 00:48:17.560
they're just a little bit longer.

137a5a38-d3d8-48f8-af70-9e207507f8bf-0
00:48:20.800 --> 00:48:22.200
Section 1, isn't too bad.

924d55a5-cf9f-48cf-94eb-b0d0ac7d408c-0
00:48:23.000 --> 00:48:26.440
It's line pipe of a kind used for oil or
gas pipelines.

47b83340-9c09-4b1b-8d8e-75160a1a57c6-0
00:48:27.040 --> 00:48:28.640
It's welded stainless steel.

2f5bdf2b-25ca-4f37-bdf6-d9cb15100f84-0
00:48:28.640 --> 00:48:32.120
Line pipe has its own breakouts based on
outside diameter.

6827b808-4564-43c9-af46-c143e734e8fa-0
00:48:32.800 --> 00:48:36.607
If it is line pipe that is not stainless
steel,

6827b808-4564-43c9-af46-c143e734e8fa-1
00:48:36.607 --> 00:48:43.032
it's broken down in 7306.19 and then by
chemistry and outside diameter. All line

6827b808-4564-43c9-af46-c143e734e8fa-2
00:48:43.032 --> 00:48:46.759
pipe is going to be either seamless or
welded.

7c47f3d4-6965-49a9-ab71-124a42573c2f-0
00:48:47.040 --> 00:48:52.485
What I mean by that as you will not find
riveted or similarly closed line pipe.

7c47f3d4-6965-49a9-ab71-124a42573c2f-1
00:48:52.485 --> 00:48:54.800
It's got to be seamless or welded.

792d3ec8-c245-4ddd-a977-08e97ee97ddb-0
00:48:57.840 --> 00:49:01.550
Section 2,
which is casing and tubing of a kind used

792d3ec8-c245-4ddd-a977-08e97ee97ddb-1
00:49:01.550 --> 00:49:05.400
for oil or gas,
has a lot more breakouts than the last

792d3ec8-c245-4ddd-a977-08e97ee97ddb-2
00:49:05.400 --> 00:49:05.680
one.

ba46f47b-fd17-4b8f-8ce2-4e0b84cfa4ef-0
00:49:05.680 --> 00:49:09.351
But once you know whether or not it's
stainless steel, other alloy steel,

ba46f47b-fd17-4b8f-8ce2-4e0b84cfa4ef-1
00:49:09.351 --> 00:49:12.327
or non-alloy steel,
then you just need to know whether it's

ba46f47b-fd17-4b8f-8ce2-4e0b84cfa4ef-2
00:49:12.327 --> 00:49:13.320
threaded or coupled.

a9d66935-e984-4ac3-86cc-930c738b0259-0
00:49:14.040 --> 00:49:18.040
So unlike the last section,
there are no dimensions in this section.

496e92ca-f4fe-4bc1-a1c0-fbcb280adf57-0
00:49:18.800 --> 00:49:23.369
Note that the casing is threaded or
coupled or other than threaded or coupled,

496e92ca-f4fe-4bc1-a1c0-fbcb280adf57-1
00:49:23.369 --> 00:49:27.708
while the tubing is broken down by
whether it's imported with its coupling

496e92ca-f4fe-4bc1-a1c0-fbcb280adf57-2
00:49:27.708 --> 00:49:30.080
or other than imported with its coupling.

c6e99e45-3819-4993-b078-d474c18b872f-0
00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:37.687
Section 3,
which is other welded of circular cross

c6e99e45-3819-4993-b078-d474c18b872f-1
00:49:37.687 --> 00:49:42.692
section of iron or non-alloy steel,
also only has two breakouts.

c6e99e45-3819-4993-b078-d474c18b872f-2
00:49:42.692 --> 00:49:49.160
Whether the wall thickness is less than 1.
65 mm or greater than or equal to 1.65 mm.

36dc6baa-3393-4e55-8bda-4dfd4656db03-0
00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:50.200
And why you think that?

79361e7e-b9d5-449e-ae98-33ceeb94a670-0
00:49:50.360 --> 00:49:56.129
Why you might think that having only two
major breakouts isn't too bad if the pipe

79361e7e-b9d5-449e-ae98-33ceeb94a670-1
00:49:56.129 --> 00:49:58.840
has a wall thickness of 1.65 mm or more,

e8f70c5a-e076-416f-8af5-41d29e9f783a-0
00:49:58.840 --> 00:50:00.920
there are many, many other breakouts.

8e9d1a82-b7dc-43c9-85b8-c18e754740ef-0
00:50:01.640 --> 00:50:05.300
But the good news is,
if your pipe has a wall thickness less

8e9d1a82-b7dc-43c9-85b8-c18e754740ef-1
00:50:05.300 --> 00:50:06.800
than 1.65 mm, you're done.

1e9364fb-0929-4efc-b88a-2d988be0cd2b-0
00:50:08.000 --> 00:50:12.260
But if your pipe has a wall thickness
greater than or equal to 1.65 mm,

1e9364fb-0929-4efc-b88a-2d988be0cd2b-1
00:50:12.260 --> 00:50:15.320
you just need to know whether or not it's
tapered.

121522f2-3004-4abd-abd0-b5b2d066a096-0
00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:19.320
If it's not tapered,
then you start with the other breakdowns.

20cbe287-d57b-48c3-beec-69520a0c32be-0
00:50:20.600 --> 00:50:25.782
The only definitions here that you
haven't heard before are suitable for use

20cbe287-d57b-48c3-beec-69520a0c32be-1
00:50:25.782 --> 00:50:30.360
as electrical conduit and type tube and
pipe hollows for redrawing.

35bcf331-e288-452f-ab31-eaf7f749abe7-0
00:50:31.000 --> 00:50:36.740
Now suitable for use as electrical
conduit are just pipes that usually meet

35bcf331-e288-452f-ab31-eaf7f749abe7-1
00:50:36.740 --> 00:50:42.481
the Underwriters Laboratory standard
UL797 for electrical mechanic metallic

35bcf331-e288-452f-ab31-eaf7f749abe7-2
00:50:42.481 --> 00:50:46.711
tubing steel,
while tube and pipe hollows for redrawing

35bcf331-e288-452f-ab31-eaf7f749abe7-3
00:50:46.711 --> 00:50:52.527
are simply tubes and pipes that can be
reheated and drawn through a die. Just

35bcf331-e288-452f-ab31-eaf7f749abe7-4
00:50:52.527 --> 00:50:56.380
like Section 3,
Section 4 which is other welded of

35bcf331-e288-452f-ab31-eaf7f749abe7-5
00:50:56.380 --> 00:51:02.423
circular cross section of stainless steel
is broken down by wall thickness less

35bcf331-e288-452f-ab31-eaf7f749abe7-6
00:51:02.423 --> 00:51:06.199
than 1.65 mm
and greater than or equal to 1.65 mm.

03807aa7-ad30-4b07-974a-7e2d5130ddca-0
00:51:06.720 --> 00:51:10.456
There is a lot of chemistry in these
breakdowns so you are going to have to

03807aa7-ad30-4b07-974a-7e2d5130ddca-1
00:51:10.456 --> 00:51:13.800
have a mil test cert or at least a
chemical composition breakdown.

89c520da-9581-498a-a766-6665e69243ba-0
00:51:17.960 --> 00:51:19.640
Section 5 is a pretty easy one.

64233767-f722-4c2c-a84f-2551c2d09d9d-0
00:51:20.120 --> 00:51:25.443
It's welded of circular cross section of
other alloy steel and just like sections

64233767-f722-4c2c-a84f-2551c2d09d9d-1
00:51:25.443 --> 00:51:29.144
3 and 4 it has two major breakouts based
on that same 1.65 mm

64233767-f722-4c2c-a84f-2551c2d09d9d-2
00:51:29.144 --> 00:51:34.468
wall thickness. Broken down further
by some terms we're now familiar with: the

64233767-f722-4c2c-a84f-2551c2d09d9d-3
00:51:34.468 --> 00:51:37.520
tapered pipes, the suitable for use in
boilers,

2b4ef81d-c37d-458a-a4c4-8ecb496d2f2e-0
00:51:37.520 --> 00:51:43.851
the cold working. Section 6 starts out
slightly differently because now we've

2b4ef81d-c37d-458a-a4c4-8ecb496d2f2e-1
00:51:43.851 --> 00:51:46.400
reached the non circular pipes.

e0d4c597-bb57-47d0-8ad9-baf39771eaa9-0
00:51:47.080 --> 00:51:52.419
So we first break the section down by
square or rectangular or other than

e0d4c597-bb57-47d0-8ad9-baf39771eaa9-1
00:51:52.419 --> 00:51:56.821
square or rectangular,
and while we further break it down by

e0d4c597-bb57-47d0-8ad9-baf39771eaa9-2
00:51:56.821 --> 00:52:00.934
wall thickness,
the wall thickness has increased from 1.

e0d4c597-bb57-47d0-8ad9-baf39771eaa9-3
00:52:00.934 --> 00:52:01.800
65mm to 4mm.

49b4fa11-5043-4054-8591-001e4759516e-0
00:52:02.560 --> 00:52:06.900
After that it's simply a matter of
whether it's non alloy or alloy or

49b4fa11-5043-4054-8591-001e4759516e-1
00:52:06.900 --> 00:52:07.520
stainless.

bc80bc49-5e4e-4d25-9758-3842e79232e4-0
00:52:08.560 --> 00:52:11.920
Well, if you think Section 6 is easy,
just wait until the last one.

2870b91d-1fda-41c5-bde0-543064ca4557-0
00:52:15.760 --> 00:52:18.520
It can't get much simpler than this last
Section 7.

7d0a6283-a667-4222-be71-709b62cad01d-0
00:52:19.000 --> 00:52:21.633
If it doesn't fall under any of the other
sections,

7d0a6283-a667-4222-be71-709b62cad01d-1
00:52:21.633 --> 00:52:25.280
it goes here and you just need to know
whether it's non-alloy or alloy.

e81fb972-c2bb-43e3-890b-71575178abdd-0
00:52:27.960 --> 00:52:30.080
So let's do a heading 7306

0f6f7245-143b-47fe-a43c-4427254dc17a-0
00:52:30.200 --> 00:52:31.160
quick recap.

27c7f564-7e88-4ecf-9e4b-e8e09b67a27f-0
00:52:32.040 --> 00:52:35.440
Section 1 is line pipe of a kind used for
oil or gas.

626e43b7-4172-481d-b1fa-60b7be721043-0
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:41.360
It's welded of stainless steel other and
it's broken down by outside diameter.

fdd7c67b-4068-4d22-9e01-0b8575bcfa5a-0
00:52:42.600 --> 00:52:47.856
Section 2 was casing or tubing of a kind
used in drilling for oil or gas welded of

fdd7c67b-4068-4d22-9e01-0b8575bcfa5a-1
00:52:47.856 --> 00:52:49.440
stainless steel or other.

f65be606-c715-4f9b-98c3-669e26ff49fb-0
00:52:50.040 --> 00:52:52.448
After that,
it's broken down by casing or tubing,

f65be606-c715-4f9b-98c3-669e26ff49fb-1
00:52:52.448 --> 00:52:56.446
whether or not it's threaded or coupled,
and whether or not it's imported with the

f65be606-c715-4f9b-98c3-669e26ff49fb-2
00:52:56.446 --> 00:52:56.880
coupling.

9aa9eec9-83e9-44f5-bbd9-9d92e22b541b-0
00:52:57.960 --> 00:53:06.520
Sections 3-4 and 5 are other welded
and Section 3 is non-alloy.

49c370fe-37a8-427c-9e24-d2b730b3ae41-0
00:53:06.840 --> 00:53:09.920
Section 4 is stainless,
Section 5 is other alloy.

5cbd7290-2de3-46cb-86b3-79cc97c8a20b-0
00:53:10.240 --> 00:53:14.486
They're all broken down by wall thickness
based on 1.65mm.

5cbd7290-2de3-46cb-86b3-79cc97c8a20b-1
00:53:14.486 --> 00:53:20.621
And then section after that weather
the use the manufacturing process is,

5cbd7290-2de3-46cb-86b3-79cc97c8a20b-2
00:53:20.621 --> 00:53:24.160
the outside diameter and the wall
thickness.

5f61ce18-591f-452f-9232-d32ed065411e-0
00:53:24.800 --> 00:53:29.479
And then section 6 was the other welded
of non circular cross section which is

5f61ce18-591f-452f-9232-d32ed065411e-1
00:53:29.479 --> 00:53:32.560
broken down by shape,
wall thickness and chemistry.

db563e44-73f2-41ce-9e61-be2941b5b16b-0
00:53:32.960 --> 00:53:38.181
While the last section was everything
that did not fall under the other six

db563e44-73f2-41ce-9e61-be2941b5b16b-1
00:53:38.181 --> 00:53:38.800
sections.

aab98b67-0290-4c05-bf33-0d9a0199ca29-0
00:53:38.840 --> 00:53:41.240
And you just have to know if it's non-
alloy or alloy.

9cad7182-2101-4bdb-bf05-e0a6b8db4d10-0
00:53:43.120 --> 00:53:48.694
One last final recap,
heading 7304 was for seamless not

9cad7182-2101-4bdb-bf05-e0a6b8db4d10-1
00:53:48.694 --> 00:53:49.560
seamless

f6c5d932-ddad-461b-b2d5-b58ac82faef9-0
00:53:49.800 --> 00:53:53.880
hot welded manufactured from gold ingot,

15fc7972-9b6b-4220-9aeb-1745ad9403a5-0
00:53:53.880 --> 00:53:54.760
billet, or round,

169b15d1-89ba-481b-9cc1-034cb56fe40f-0
00:53:54.960 --> 00:53:56.680
usually pierced or extruded.

2282a2bb-78f5-4d4d-a22d-ec71f270c1d7-0
00:53:56.680 --> 00:54:01.520
Can be of circular cross section or non-
circular cross section.

284902c6-de87-4586-84fe-3e19c2f10470-0
00:54:01.960 --> 00:54:05.440
Heading 7305 is welded or similarly
closed.

a7a50ca3-b441-4397-9125-c5f83638b0d1-0
00:54:05.800 --> 00:54:11.101
Circular cross section outside diameter
is greater than 406.4 mm

a7a50ca3-b441-4397-9125-c5f83638b0d1-1
00:54:11.101 --> 00:54:15.520
Heading 7306 welded or
similarly closed.

53058659-b5a6-45ee-803d-9161a25863be-0
00:54:15.800 --> 00:54:18.928
Does not have to be a circular cross
section,

53058659-b5a6-45ee-803d-9161a25863be-1
00:54:18.928 --> 00:54:24.368
but if it is a circular cross section
then the outside diameter has to be equal

53058659-b5a6-45ee-803d-9161a25863be-2
00:54:24.368 --> 00:54:26.000
to or less than 406.4mm.

7144d741-2a38-4237-94e7-b3e9b064e6f5-0
00:54:26.480 --> 00:54:31.158
The images on the slide,
the first one that is seamless goes with

7144d741-2a38-4237-94e7-b3e9b064e6f5-1
00:54:31.158 --> 00:54:35.127
heading 7304,
while the longitudinally welded and the

7144d741-2a38-4237-94e7-b3e9b064e6f5-2
00:54:35.127 --> 00:54:40.160
spirally welded will go with either
Heading 7305 and Heading 7306.

dd127eef-03c1-4887-a9e9-6c7b7d5eca6a-0
00:54:43.320 --> 00:54:47.358
So I want to leave you with this image
because Stephen King recently said that a

dd127eef-03c1-4887-a9e9-6c7b7d5eca6a-1
00:54:47.358 --> 00:54:50.600
great idea for a horror novel would be a
plumber in outer space.

688d60be-d748-45a0-abf6-7937833ac1e7-0
00:54:51.600 --> 00:54:55.600
So I think we do have just a couple of
minutes for questions.

cfd9b4d1-ade5-457d-a9cf-697c616af77d-0
00:54:56.520 --> 00:55:00.600
I'm going to put my contact information
up here again.

c1838d97-8d17-4cf3-b0d5-4bf21cb4c235-0
00:55:00.960 --> 00:55:05.960
And then also as promised,
we have the Continuing Education

c1838d97-8d17-4cf3-b0d5-4bf21cb4c235-1
00:55:05.960 --> 00:55:06.960
information.

a08fc0bf-63eb-4d94-9a27-5dfeb5292707-0
00:55:06.960 --> 00:55:13.840
The title of the program is Going with
the Flow: Pipes, Tubes and Hollow Profiles.

0a977f55-27fe-46aa-bc1d-206f13192beb-0
00:55:14.160 --> 00:55:25.603
It is one Continuing Education credit and
the code for this is 

0a977f55-27fe-46aa-bc1d-206f13192beb-1
00:55:25.603 --> 00:55:27.320
CBP-042025-6-0034.

62637108-fecd-4c95-8e7a-8eb1366f5a85-0
00:55:28.000 --> 00:55:31.869
So if we have questions,
I'm going to turn it back over and get

62637108-fecd-4c95-8e7a-8eb1366f5a85-1
00:55:31.869 --> 00:55:33.200
those questions asked.

2f2497aa-c72e-40de-8d75-869836bad1b1-0
00:55:40.760 --> 00:55:46.981
Angie, unfortunately, time is almost up,
so we won't be able to ask all the

2f2497aa-c72e-40de-8d75-869836bad1b1-1
00:55:46.981 --> 00:55:50.747
questions,
but we want to thank everybody for

2f2497aa-c72e-40de-8d75-869836bad1b1-2

this code for today's webinar is
CBP-042025-6-0034.

18cf655d-77d6-4587-bb9b-891e8a3e0727-0
00:56:28.510 --> 00:56:30.750
This concludes our webinar for this
afternoon.

547ec1ca-46f1-4e86-953d-a656f4e4e9ef-0
00:56:31.190 --> 00:56:35.070
