Nickel 99.95% Pure Cathode
High-purity nickel cathode sheets produced via electrolytic refining, containing at least 99.95% nickel with minimal impurities. These unwrought sheets serve as raw material for further processing into rods, wires, or other products, and meet the definition of nickel, not alloyed.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the cathode sheets are not cut to shape or perforated, which would make them worked articles
• Keep the original mill certificate showing the nickel content
• Be aware that statistical unit is kilograms of nickel content, so verify the assay

Aerospace Nickel Pellets
Aerospace-grade nickel pellets with 99.95% nickel content, produced to AMS 7503 specifications for vacuum arc remelting in superalloy production. These pellets are unwrought feedstock, not yet worked into any semi-finished or finished form, and meet the definition of nickel, not alloyed under subheading note 1(a).
Atomized Nickel Spheres
Gas-atomized pure nickel spheres (99.9% Ni) averaging 3-6mm in diameter, used as feedstock for additive manufacturing. These spheres are unwrought nickel, as they are produced directly by atomization and do not undergo any further working or fabrication.
Battery-Grade Nickel Pellets
Ultra-high purity nickel pellets (99.99% Ni) with low sulfur and carbon content, designed for NMC battery cathode precursor production. These pellets are in unwrought form, optimized for dissolution in precursor manufacturing, and qualify as nickel, not alloyed under subheading note 1(a).
Electrolytic Nickel Rounds
Electrolytic nickel rounds, cylindrical in shape with 99.9% purity, used directly in melting furnaces for alloy production. These rounds are unwrought because they are in a raw, unprocessed state despite their discrete shape, and meet the definition of nickel, not alloyed.
Electrolytic Nickel Target Material
High-purity nickel slabs (99.995% Ni) used as sputtering targets for thin-film deposition. Although they have precise dimensions, they are considered unwrought because they are primarily melted down for further processing, and they meet the definition of nickel, not alloyed.
Electronic-Grade Nickel Wire Chop
Chopped pure nickel wire segments (99.995% Ni) in 1-3mm lengths, used as vapor deposition source material. The wire is mechanically chopped from cast rod without drawing, so it retains its unwrought character and is classified as unwrought nickel.
