Tube or pipe fittings (e.g. couplings, elbows, sleeves), of iron or steel
In plain English
This category covers tube or pipe fittings made of iron or steel, such as couplings, elbows, and sleeves. The items are primarily divided by material, separating cast iron from other iron or steel products, and further distinguishing stainless steel from non-stainless varieties. Within these material groups, the fittings are classified by their specific type, including flanges, threaded elbows, bends, sleeves, and butt welding fittings. Any fittings not specifically listed in those detailed categories fall into the remaining "other" classifications for their respective material groups.

Chapter 73 classification notes
Frequent misclassification in this chapter
Stainless steel articles should be classified under the specific stainless steel headings, not general iron/steel. Alloy steel has its own subheadings.
