Alternative Classifications

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

7217.90Same rate: 35%

If not suitable for mechanical working/drawing

End-use suitability determines subheading within other wire.

7219.90.00Same rate: 35%

If further worked beyond basic annealing

Advanced surface treatments trigger 'further worked' classification.

7308.90Lower: 10% vs 35%

If imported as finished screw/pin products

Fabricated articles classified by function, not wire form.
