1.0 mm Mild Steel Binding Wire from Canada
Uncoated mild steel wire of 1.0 mm diameter, not polished, used primarily for binding rebar in concrete construction. It falls under HTS 7217.10.90.00 as wire of iron or nonalloy steel that is not plated or coated and does not meet specifications for other categories like concrete reinforcing rods with deformations.

Import Tips
• Verify wire diameter and tensile strength via mill test certificates to confirm nonalloy composition and avoid misclassification as high-strength steel
• Provide documentation proving no plating or coating; common pitfall is residual oils mistaken for coatings
• Declare exact gauge and use; binding wire often scrutinized for rebar rod confusion under note (c)
