0.8mm High-Carbon Spring Steel Wire from Japan
Round wire of nonalloy steel containing 0.6% or more carbon by weight, with a diameter of 0.8mm, not plated or coated. Used primarily for manufacturing small compression springs in precision instruments and automotive components. Falls under HTS 7217.10.80.60 due to its high carbon content, round cross-section, and sub-1mm diameter.

Import Tips
• Verify carbon content certification (≥0.6%) via mill test reports to avoid reclassification to lower carbon wires
• Ensure precise diameter measurement documentation; sub-1mm tolerance is critical for this statistical suffix
