The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm the pellets are not coated or treated with any substances
• Provide the supplier's analysis showing nickel content and impurity levels
• Ensure the pellets are not considered powder (≥90% passing through 1mm sieve), which would change classification

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).
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.
Full Plate Nickel Cathodes
Full plate electrolytic nickel cathodes, measuring 1.25m x 0.65m and weighing 12-15kg each, with 99.90% purity. These cathodes are the industry standard for remelting and are considered unwrought nickel, not alloyed, as they are directly produced by electrolysis without further working.
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.
