C11000 ETP Copper Strip
C11000 electrolytic tough pitch (ETP) copper strip is a high-purity copper (99.9%) plate with thickness 0.3 mm and width 300 mm, ideal for electrical connectors and bus bars. Although nearly pure copper, it qualifies under 'other copper alloys' in this subheading per HTS structure for refined copper products not elsewhere specified. Meets criteria for plates/sheets/strips >0.15 mm thick, <5 mm, <500 mm wide.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If of refined copper without alloying elements
Pure refined copper sheets go to 7409.11, while this subheading covers alloyed or 'other' compositions per the hierarchy.
If thickness ≤0.15 mm
Thin sheets/foil ≤0.15 mm thick are in 7408, differentiating based on minimum thickness threshold.
If in coil form exceeding 125 mm wide
Coiled copper foil >125 mm wide falls under 7410 for refined copper foil, not plates/sheets.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit chemical analysis reports showing Cu content >99.3% to distinguish from alloyed products and support 'other copper alloys' placement
• Label packaging clearly with dimensions and temper (e.g
• H04 hard) to facilitate customs verification of flat strip form
