Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If alloy steel construction
Alloy steel chains shift to 7315.82 heading, separate from carbon steel 'other chain'.
If part of material handling machinery
Chains integral to forklifts or conveyors classify as machinery parts, not standalone chain.
If for elevator or vehicle use
Specialized chains for lifts or vehicles have dedicated subheadings outside 'other'.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Test and certify working load limits (WLL) as chains must meet ASTM standards for import safety
• Separate proof coil from BBB chain in invoices to avoid averaging duties across types
• Declare exact alloy composition to distinguish from stainless, preventing HTS misclassification

Stainless Steel Welded Link Chain
A durable chain made from welded stainless steel links, each with cross-sectional dimensions under 16 mm, used for general industrial tying and securing applications. It falls under HTS 7315.89.5000 as 'other chain' of iron or steel, not classified as articulated, roller, or specifically for bicycles or transmissions. This classification applies to welded chains excluding ornamental or specialized types.
Galvanized Steel Jack Chain
Twisted loop jack chain coated with zinc galvanization for corrosion resistance, featuring small twisted links under 16 mm cross-section, ideal for hanging fixtures and light-duty suspension. Classified under HTS 7315.89.5000 as 'other chain' of steel, distinct from roller or transmission chains. Galvanization does not alter its 'other chain' status.
Zinc-Plated Utility Link Chain
Versatile zinc-plated steel chain with oval links for general utility purposes like animal leashes or barrier systems, wire ≤16 mm. Falls under HTS 7315.89.5000 for other steel chains not otherwise specified. Plating enhances durability but keeps it in 'other chain'.
Proof Coil Steel Chain
Standard proof coil chain from low-carbon steel for load binding and construction, with uniform round links under 16 mm dimension. HTS 7315.89.5000 covers this as other chain, excluding transmission types. Meets common ASTM F620 specs for general use.
Straight Link Welded Chain
Welded straight link steel chain for marine and agricultural securing, cross-section <16 mm per Chapter definition. Classified in HTS 7315.89.5000 as other chain not for specific machinery. Welding ensures strength for heavy-duty applications.
Twist Link Machine Chain
Twist link steel chain for machine guarding and conveyor pulls, wire gauge ensuring ≤16 mm section. HTS 7315.89.5000 applies to this other chain type excluding roller variants. Designed for moderate temperature industrial environments.
