Nickel 99.95% Pure Cathode

High-purity nickel cathode sheets produced via electrolytic refining, containing at least 99.95% nickel with minimal impurities. This unwrought form is used as a raw material for further processing into rods, wires, or alloys. It falls under HTS 7502.10.00.00 as unwrought, non-alloyed nickel.

Electrolytic Nickel Rounds

Cylindrical electrolytic nickel pellets or rounds, 99.9% pure, used directly in melting furnaces for alloy production. These are considered unwrought due to their raw, unprocessed state despite discrete shape. Classified under HTS 7502.10.00.00 as non-alloyed unwrought nickel.

Nickel Briquettes 99.8% Pure

Compressed nickel briquettes made from electrolytic nickel powder, containing 99.8% nickel, used in stainless steel production. Remains unwrought as briquetting doesn't constitute working beyond consolidation. HTS 7502.10.00.00 applies to this non-alloyed form.

High-Purity Nickel Shot

Small spherical nickel shot beads, 99.99% pure, produced by atomization for precision melting applications. Unwrought status maintained as shot form facilitates handling without constituting fabrication. Falls under HTS 7502.10.00.00 for pure unwrought nickel.

Nickel Rounds for Battery Production
