0.5mm Annealed Low Carbon Wire
Soft annealed round steel wire, 0.5mm diameter, <0.25% carbon, non-plated for fine wire applications like electronics harnesses and jewelry making. The annealing process softens for better formability without affecting HTS classification. Meets 7217.10.40 criteria for size and composition.

More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If stainless alloy steel
Stainless compositions (with chromium, nickel) classified under alloy headings regardless of diameter.
If Coiled bars/rods sometimes confused with wire; wire defined by drawing process and diameter.
Wire distinguished from rod by production method and size parameters.
If insulated with plastics
Plastic-coated or insulated wire moves to Chapter 85 electrical conductors.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Annealing doesn't change classification but ensure documentation shows no chemical coatings applied during process
• Fine wires prone to tangling; proper spooling/packaging prevents damage claims denial per chapter notes on rust
• Test for carbon content uniformity; spot variations can lead to entire lot reclassification
