Aluminum Bronze C95400 Coil Strip 8mm Thick
C95400 aluminum bronze (Cu-Sn-Al alloy with tin predominant) is used in marine propellers and heavy wear parts. This 8 mm thick coiled sheet qualifies under HTS 7409.31.10.00 as a copper-tin base alloy per subheading note (b), despite aluminum presence since tin > other elements.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If refined copper rather than alloyed bronze
Pure copper coils >5mm thick go to 7409.11; alloy composition determines base metal shift.
If not in coils but as flat sheets/plates
7409.31 covers coils only; non-coiled bronze plates >5mm use different 7409 structure.
If further worked (e.g., machined or punched)
Finished articles or profiles from bronze shift to Chapter 74 heading 7419.

Import Tips & Compliance
β’ Provide chemical analysis showing tin weight % exceeds zinc and other elements except allowable zinc <10%
β’ Measure coil thickness precisely as customs may gauge samples; >5mm required for this subheading
β’ Label as 'machinery parts material' if pre-cut to avoid essential character shift
