This order gives a tariff concession (reduced or zero import duty) for a very specific piece of industrial equipment: alumina grabs (clamshell buckets used to handle alumina powder).
To qualify for the concession, the grabs must meet both of these physical criteria:
- Knife sealers (a type of sealing edge)
- An enclosed top
The goods must also fall under customs classification 8431.41.00 (parts for machinery).
Why this matters:
If you import alumina grabs matching this exact description, you can claim Item 50 of Schedule 4 to the Customs Tariff Act 1995—typically allowing the goods to enter Australia duty-free or at a reduced rate. Without this order, the standard tariff would apply. The concession took effect on 25 July 2006 and remains valid until revoked.
