Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8001.20.00Higher: 25% vs 17.5%

If pure tin wire without steel

All-tin wire is Chapter 80; steel substrate dominates here.

7212.60.00Higher: 35% vs 17.5%

If electrolytically plated in coils

Specific plating process (electrolytic) may fall under 7212 coated sheets/wire.

Import Tips & Compliance

Separate from lead solder (Chapter 80); steel core keeps in 72 despite tin coating

Flux core addition post-import doesn't affect entry classification

High purity tin cert needed; impurities may reclassify coating
