Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not coated, for mechanical springs
Uncoated low carbon wire specifically for springs has its own subheading.
If formed into helical springs
Finished coil/helical springs from the wire classify under 7320 articles of iron/steel.
If ball-bearing steel per Chapter Note (h)
Specialty steels like ball-bearing grade, even low carbon, go to alloy wire headings.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Document alloy plating composition (e.g
• 98% zinc, 2% iron) to confirm base metal status
• Tensile strength tests distinguish from high-carbon spring wire
• Avoid bulk packaging confusion with industrial coils
