Tin-Plated Low-Carbon Steel Welding Wire 0.8mm from Germany
Round welding wire made from nonalloy steel containing less than 0.25% carbon, plated with tin for corrosion resistance and smooth feeding in MIG welders. Diameter measures 0.8 mm, suitable for automotive body repairs and thin sheet metal fabrication. Classified under HTS 7217.30.4511 due to its low carbon content, round shape under 1.0 mm, and base metal plating.

Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificate confirming carbon content below 0.25% and exact plating composition to avoid reclassification
• Declare precise diameter measurement; CBP may inspect samples for <1.0 mm compliance
• Ensure plating is base metal only (e.g
• tin, zinc); precious metal coatings shift to different subheadings
