C26000 Cartridge Brass Round Rod
A 1-inch diameter round rod made from C26000 cartridge brass (70% copper, 30% zinc), a copper-zinc base alloy used in ammunition casings and hardware. Classified under HTS 7407.29.50.00 as bars and rods of copper alloys other than those specifically specified elsewhere in the subheading. Meets the definition of brass where zinc predominates over other elements.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If phosphor bronze alloy with >3% tin
Shifts to copper-tin base alloys (bronzes) per subheading note (b) when tin predominates or meets bronze criteria.
If refined copper (>99.3% Cu), not alloy
Pure copper bars/rods fall under 7407.10, excluding alloys per Chapter 74 structure.
If produced in the US and meeting specific criteria
Certain US-produced alloy bars/rods have separate statistical breakout in 7407.29.10.00.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide mill test certificates verifying alloy composition (Cu-Zn with Zn < predominant) to confirm classification as brass under subheading note (a)
• Ensure rods meet dimensional specs for 'bars and rods' (solid, hot-rolled or extruded profiles under 25mm thick)
• Avoid misclassification as profiles if cross-section exceeds standard rod limits; common pitfall with decorative trim
