0.8mm Low Carbon Steel Round Wire from China
Round wire of iron or nonalloy steel with less than 0.25% carbon content and a diameter of 0.8mm, not plated or coated. Used primarily for manufacturing springs and small wire forms in automotive and appliance industries. Falls under HTS 7217.10.40 due to its precise diameter under 1.5mm and low carbon composition.

Import Tips
• Verify exact diameter measurement with calipers as CBP requires precise compliance for the <1.5mm threshold
• Provide mill test certificate confirming <0.25% carbon content to avoid reclassification to higher carbon categories
• Ensure no surface plating or coating; even minimal oil residue can trigger scrutiny under 'not plated or coated' provision
