0.6mm Ultra-Fine Copper-Plated Silico-Manganese Welding Wire

Ultra-fine 0.6 mm copper-plated round wire made from low-carbon silico-manganese steel, used for precision electric arc welding in thin-sheet applications. The copper coating improves arc stability and conductivity, and the silico-manganese composition (Mn >0.9%, Si >0.6%) qualifies it as other alloy steel wire under tariff item 7229.20.00.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7229.90.00Same rate: Free

If the wire contains alloying elements other than silico-manganese that exceed the thresholds for other alloy steel

Wire of other alloy steel not specifically silico-manganese falls under this residual subheading.

8311.30.00Same rate: Free

If the wire is coated with flux and sold as welding electrodes

Coated electrodes of base metal for electric arc welding are classified in Chapter 83.

Import Tips & Compliance

β€’ Ensure the wire's chemical composition (C <0.20%, Mn >0.9%, Si >0.6%) is documented in the commercial invoice to support classification under 7229.20.00

β€’ Verify that the copper coating is incidental to the welding function, not a separate product, to avoid reclassification

β€’ Keep mill test certificates available for CBSA verification
