Hollow Copper Oval Profiles for Radiator Manufacturing from Mexico
Oval-shaped hollow profiles extruded from refined copper, engineered for automotive and industrial radiator cores where the elongated cross-section optimizes fluid flow and heat dissipation. HTS 7407.10.15.00 applies to these refined copper hollow profiles, separate from circular tubing. Their precise wall thickness supports brazing in heat exchanger assemblies.

Import Tips
• Mill test reports certifying refined copper chemistry (Cu >99.9%) are crucial to avoid alloy misclassification
• Specify 'profiles' not 'tubes' in commercial invoices; include cross-sectional diagrams showing non-circular hollow shape
• For radiator-specific imports, separate from fins or headers to prevent set classification under 8708.99
