Galvanized High-Carbon Round Steel Wire 0.8mm
Round wire of nonalloy steel with 0.6-1.0% carbon content, plated with zinc, and having a diameter of 0.8 mm. Classified under HTS 7217.30.45.30 due to its high carbon content, base metal plating, and sub-1.0 mm diameter as nonalloy iron or steel wire. Used primarily for mechanical springs and high-strength applications.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not plated or coated
Unplated high-carbon round wire <1.0 mm falls under the non-plated subheading in the same tariff line.
If alloy steel composition
High-carbon wire with alloying elements exceeding nonalloy thresholds moves to Chapter 72 alloy steel wire.
If imported as finished springs
Further worked into springs or shapes changes classification from wire to stranded wire or articles thereof.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide mill test certificates verifying carbon content ≥0.6% and exact diameter <1.0 mm to avoid reclassification
• Ensure plating is confirmed as other base metals (e.g
• zinc) via documentation; specify plating thickness if required
