Ultrafine Rhenium Powder for Additive Manufacturing from Japan
Ultrafine rhenium powder with particle size under 10 microns, designed for additive manufacturing (3D printing) of high-temperature components such as rocket engine parts. As an unwrought powder prior to forming into finished parts, it is classified under tariff item 8112.41.00 for unwrought rhenium, waste and scrap, and powders.
Duty Rate — Japan → Canada
Import Tips
• Confirm the particle size distribution meets the Section XV definition of powder (90% passing a 1 mm sieve); ultrafine powders easily qualify
• For aerospace applications, be aware that rhenium may be subject to export controls in the country of origin, but Canada applies its own import controls—check with the CBSA
• Keep documentation of the powder's intended use in 3D printing to support classification as unwrought material
