High-Purity Annealed Copper Bus Bar Wire from Japan
Annealed refined copper wire 12 mm diameter for fabricating flexible bus bars in switchgear manufacturing. HTS 7408.11.30.00 classification due to refined composition, wire form, and cross-section >9.5 mm before any bending/forming. Soft temper maximizes formability.

Import Tips
• Specify annealing condition (soft/O temper) and IACS conductivity ≥100% on test reports
• Prevent coiling too tightly during shipping to avoid work-hardening reclassification
• Mark packages 'for further fabrication' to support wire vs. profile distinction
