ECCN 1A202
NPATComposite structures, other than those controlled by 1A002, in the form of tubes and having both of the following characteristics .
What This ECCN Covers
ECCN 1A202 controls composite structures, other than those controlled by 1A002, in the form of tubes meeting the dimensional and material criteria in the entry. These composite tubes have nuclear-fuel-cycle and other proliferation-sensitive applications, so they are controlled for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Anti-Terrorism reasons.
Who needs to check this?
Producers and exporters of high-performance composite tubing and the engineering firms that integrate it into process or structural systems.
Compliance tip
First rule out 1A002 (the broader composites entry); 1A202 catches specific tube geometries below or outside it. With NP among the reasons, license exceptions are limited — confirm the Country Chart columns and apply Part 744 nuclear end-use diligence.
Items Covered
- b.Made with any of the "fibrous or filamentary materials" specified in 1C010.a or .b or 1C210.a or with carbon prepreg materials specified in 1C210.c.
Control Reasons
Items controlled for nuclear nonproliferation reasons.
Items controlled for anti-terrorism reasons. Most items on the CCL have AT controls.
