7217.20.45.10/Galvanized Low Carbon Steel Binding Wire 0.8mm/Japan

Galvanized Low Carbon Steel Binding Wire 0.8mm from Japan

Round galvanized wire with a diameter of 0.8 mm, containing less than 0.25% carbon, used for binding rebar in construction and securing materials. It is plated or coated with zinc for corrosion resistance and classified under HTS 7217.20.4510 due to its low carbon content, round shape, and sub-1.0 mm diameter. This nonalloy steel wire meets the specific criteria for this subheading.

Import Tips

• Verify zinc coating thickness and uniformity via lab testing to confirm 'plated or coated with zinc' classification and avoid reclassification

• Provide mill test certificates showing carbon content below 0.25% and exact diameter measurement under 1.0 mm for customs compliance

• Watch for common pitfalls like insufficient documentation on nonalloy steel composition, which can lead to duty reassessment
