Stainless Steel Awning Support Cable Kit from Japan
This is an assembled kit of stranded stainless steel cables with eye bolts, swages, and quick links, designed for tensioning retractable awnings. The cables are made up into articles with fittings, which places them under tariff item 7312.10.00 for stranded wire, ropes, and cables of iron or steel, not electrically insulated. The stainless steel construction and integral fittings qualify it as a finished article of this heading.

Import Tips
• Ensure the cable kit is classified as a made-up article with fittings, not as separate components, to avoid reclassification
• Verify the stainless steel grade and dimensions to confirm it meets the wire definition (no cross-sectional dimension exceeding 16 mm)
• Keep documentation of the assembly and fittings for CBSA inspection
