It falls under tariff item 3403.19.19 as a bolt or nut release preparation containing petroleum oils but less than 70% by weight, and not qualifying for the Canadian manufacture or tire wire drawing provisions of sibling items.

Import Tips

• Ensure the petroleum oil content is below 70% by weight and provide a technical datasheet to CBSA if requested

• Declare the product's end use (e.g

• automotive repair) to avoid misclassification under 3403.19.11 or 3403.19.91

• Keep records of the exact composition to support the classification
