Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the tubing is a dedicated part of an aircraft structure
Parts of aircraft are classified in Chapter 88 when they are identifiable as aircraft parts.
If the tubing is actually unalloyed aluminum
Unalloyed aluminum tubes and pipes fall under tariff item 7608.10.00.

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
• Provide detailed alloy composition documentation, as 7075's zinc and copper content confirms it as an aluminum alloy
• If the tubing is for aerospace use, ensure compliance with any applicable Canadian aviation standards
• Note that tubing cut to specific lengths for aircraft may still be classified here if not further worked
