Products classified under HTS 7217.20.45.30
Galvanized High-Carbon Steel Music Wire 0.8mm
Round galvanized wire with 0.6% or more carbon content and diameter of 0.8mm, used primarily for manufacturing piano strings and guitar strings. Classified under HTS 7217.20.45.30 due to its nonalloy steel composition, zinc coating, high carbon content, and sub-1.0mm diameter. The high carbon provides essential tensile strength for musical applications.
Zinc-Coated Carbon Steel Spring Wire 0.9mm
Galvanized round wire containing ≥0.6% carbon, 0.9mm diameter, designed for compression and extension springs in automotive and appliance applications. Fits HTS 7217.20.45.30 for its nonalloy steel base, zinc plating, high carbon for hardness, and precise small diameter. The coating provides corrosion resistance essential for durable springs.
Galvanized Carbon Steel Winding Wire 0.95mm
High-carbon zinc-coated round wire 0.95mm diameter for armature winding in small electric motors and transformers. HTS 7217.20.45.30 due to nonalloy composition, ≥0.6% carbon, zinc plating, and precise sub-1mm size. Carbon content provides necessary temper for coil winding durability.
High-Carbon Zinc-Coated Litz Wire Base 0.6mm
Individual galvanized filaments of ≥0.6% carbon steel, 0.6mm diameter, used as base wire for stranded Litz wire in high-frequency transformers. Classified HTS 7217.20.45.30 for single round wire specs before stranding. Zinc coating prevents inter-filament corrosion during electromagnetic applications.
Galvanized Steel Tyre Bead Wire 0.85mm
High-tensile carbon steel wire ≥0.6% carbon, zinc coated, 0.85mm diameter for tire bead reinforcement in radial passenger tires. HTS 7217.20.45.30 classification for nonalloy round wire characteristics. Provides hoop strength and corrosion resistance in pneumatic tire construction.
Galvanized Lock Wire 0.7mm High Carbon
High-tensile galvanized wire with ≥0.6% carbon and 0.7mm diameter, used in aerospace and military for safety wiring to secure bolts and fasteners. HTS 7217.20.45.30 applies due to zinc coating on nonalloy high-carbon round wire under 1.0mm. Provides break strength and corrosion protection critical for lock wire applications.
Zinc-Plated Brush Wire 0.5mm Carbon Steel
Fine galvanized round wire ≥0.6% carbon, 0.5mm diameter for manufacturing industrial wire brushes and abrasive tools. Classified HTS 7217.20.45.30 for high-carbon nonalloy steel, zinc coated, sub-1mm round cross-section. High carbon ensures stiffness and wear resistance when formed into brush filaments.
Zinc-Coated Carbon Filament Wire 0.4mm
Ultra-fine galvanized wire with ≥0.6% carbon content and 0.4mm diameter for filtration screens and precision woven mesh. Fits HTS 7217.20.45.30 for high-carbon nonalloy steel, zinc plated round wire under 1mm. Carbon provides rigidity for fine mesh stability in industrial filters.
