Non-Alloyed Aluminum Notch Bars from Japan
Non-alloyed aluminum notch bars, cast at 99.2% purity, are designed for easy remelting in foundries. Their notched shape facilitates handling and charging into furnaces. They are classified as unwrought aluminum under tariff item 7601.10.00 because they have not been worked beyond simple casting and cutting to length.

Import Tips
• Ensure the aluminum purity is at least 99% and that impurities (Fe+Si ≤1%, other elements ≤0.1%) meet Chapter 76 subheading note limits
• Keep certificates of analysis from the smelter to support the non-alloyed classification
• Declare the goods as unwrought aluminum; any subsequent working (e.g
• machining) would change the tariff classification
