Alternative Classifications

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

7213.91.30Higher: 35% vs 17.5%

If in irregularly wound coils

Barbed wire coils or specific winding patterns use earlier headings in Chapter 72.

7229.20.00Higher: 35% vs 17.5%

If containing chromium alloys

Alloy steel wire with chromium (per note e) shifts to alloy headings regardless of carbon content.

8544.49.10Higher: 35% vs 17.5%

If insulated for electrical use

Plating with non-base metals or insulation moves it to insulated wire under Chapter 85.

Import Tips & Compliance

Include tensile strength tests showing high-carbon properties to support classification over lower-carbon wires

Label coils clearly with diameter, carbon %, and plating; avoid bulk packing that obscures measurements
