Last updated: April 2026 dataUnworked glass tubes not elsewhere specified — covering compositions and expansion coefficients outside the fused-silica and low-expansion categories — serve a broad range of applications from lighting components and neon signs to industrial process piping and decorative glassware. The US schedule subdivides this heading by length, with tubes up to 200 mm classified under 7002390010 and longer tubes under 7002390090, a distinction relevant to lighting and display manufacturers who import short precut lengths. Germany leads supply, followed by China and Japan.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The 200 mm threshold (7002390010 vs. 7002390090) reflects the commercial distinction between short precut tube blanks — commonly used in lighting, display, and scientific instrument manufacturing — and longer stock lengths sold to fabricators who cut to specification. Importers should measure and declare tube length accurately, as the two lines may carry different duty rates.
Chinese-origin unworked glass tubes classified here may be subject to Section 301 tariffs. Given that China is among the top suppliers under this heading, importers sourcing from China should confirm the applicable List and rate with a licensed customs broker before finalizing landed-cost calculations.
