ECCN 9B001
NSMTATManufacturing equipment, tooling or fixtures, as follows .
What This ECCN Covers
ECCN 9B001 controls manufacturing equipment, tooling, and fixtures for gas-turbine production — for example directional-solidification or single-crystal casting equipment designed for "superalloys," and related tooling. The equipment that produces controlled turbine hot-section components is itself controlled for National Security, Missile Technology, and Anti-Terrorism reasons.
Who needs to check this?
Makers and exporters of turbine-blade casting equipment, superalloy processing tooling, and related aero-engine production fixtures.
Compliance tip
Control follows the turbine components the equipment is designed to produce — tie it back to the relevant 9E003/9A001 controls. The Missile Technology reason limits license exceptions; verify against the entry and apply Part 744 end-use diligence.
Items Covered
- a.Directional solidification or single crystal casting equipment designed for "superalloys";
- b.Casting tooling, specially designed for manufacturing gas turbine engine blades, vanes or "tip shrouds", manufactured from refractory metals or ceramics, as follows:
- 1. Cores;
- 2. Shells (moulds);
- 3. Combined core and shell (mould) units;
- c.Directional-solidification or single-crystal additive-manufacturing equipment designed for "superalloys".
Control Reasons
Items controlled for national security reasons under multilateral export control regimes.
Items controlled under the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR).
Items controlled for anti-terrorism reasons. Most items on the CCL have AT controls.
