Alternative Classifications

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

7215.50.00Higher: 35% vs 17.5%

If in irregularly wound coils >1.5 mm

Thicker coiled products classified as other bars/rods in 7215.

7217.30.45Same rate: 17.5%

If carbon <0.25%

Lower carbon threshold moves to adjacent .4510 subheading.

8544.49.90Higher: 38.9% vs 17.5%

If primarily for electrical conduction

Insulated or electrical conductor wire may shift to Chapter 85.

Import Tips & Compliance

Specify copper plating thickness; pitfall is confusing with Chapter 74 copper wire

Mill certificates must show nonalloy composition; measure at multiple points for diameter
