Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If bronze powder lacks flake structure
Spherical bronze powders classified as general copper alloy powders.
If cast into bronze bars then powdered
Copper-tin alloy in unwrought form before flaking falls under Chapter 74 unwrought alloys.
If metallic pigment in paint vehicle
Bronze flakes pre-mixed in coating base classified as paint rather than raw material.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit alloy analysis confirming copper-tin bronze per Chapter 74 subheading note (tin predominant over other elements)
• Declare exact tin content (8-12%) to distinguish from brass flakes and prevent 7406.10 misclassification
• Use nitrogen-flushed packaging to prevent oxidation common in tin-bearing copper alloys
