Zinc-Coated Brass Annealed Wire from United States
Zinc-coated brass annealed wire is soft-annealed copper-zinc brass wire hot-dip galvanized with zinc, used for flexible stranding in cables. The brass core meets the copper-zinc base alloy definition, and the zinc coating makes it a metal-coated copper alloy wire. It falls under tariff item 7408.29.00 as 'other' copper alloy wire.

Import Tips
• Verify the brass core composition meets the brass definition (zinc predominates, nickel <5%, tin <3%) to qualify for this tariff item
• The zinc coating is a metal plating, not an alloying element, so it does not affect the base alloy classification
• Provide documentation of the annealing process and coating to CBSA to support classification
