Annealed Low Carbon Steel Wire
Soft annealed wire of nonalloy steel with less than 0.25% carbon, used for mesh weaving and light fabrication. Classified under HTS 7217.90.50.30 due to its low carbon content and lack of alloying elements, distinguishing it from higher carbon or alloy variants. Typically provided in 16-22 gauge for flexibility.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If in irregularly wound coils >1.5mm diameter
Coil form and diameter dictate classification under 7213 for bars/rods vs wire.
If carbon content 0.25-0.6%
Specific carbon ranges subdivide the 'other wire' category.
If imported as finished chain or strand
Further manufactured articles like chain classified as stranded wire products.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include annealing process certification to prove 'further worked' status without changing basic classification
• Test for alloy elements; even trace amounts can shift to 7229 series
