Electrode Holder Jaw from Japan

Replaceable copper jaw clamps designed to fit 400A stick electrode holders used in manual shielded metal arc welding (SMAW). These jaws are essential consumable parts that grip the electrode and conduct current, and they are classified as parts of hand-directed arc welding apparatus under heading 84.68.

Import Tips

• Ensure the jaws are declared as parts of arc welding apparatus, not as electrical goods, to avoid misclassification

• Keep invoices showing the specific welding equipment they are designed for, as CBSA may request proof of use

• Verify if the copper content triggers any additional reporting requirements under Canadian metals regulations
