99.85% Pure Aluminum Billets

Cylindrical unwrought aluminum billets containing 99.85% aluminum by weight, used primarily for extrusion into profiles and rods. This high-purity, non-alloyed aluminum falls under HTS 7601.10.60.45 due to its precise purity level between 99.8% and 99.9%, distinguishing it from both purer and alloyed forms. It meets the chapter definition of 'not alloyed' aluminum with iron plus silicon below 0.1%.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7601.10.30Higher: 37.6% vs 35%

If purity exceeds 99.9% aluminum

Higher purity unwrought aluminum shifts to 7601.10.30, as it no longer fits the 99.8-99.9% range.

7601.20.90Same rate: 35%

If contains alloys with aluminum predominant but impurities exceed limits

Becomes aluminum alloys under 7601.20 if Fe+Si >0.1% or other elements total >1%, per chapter note (b).

7604.29.10Higher: 40% vs 35%

If processed into bars or rods rather than remaining unwrought

Wrought forms like bars exceed unwrought definition, moving to Chapter 76 heading 7604.

Import Tips & Compliance

Provide mill test certificates verifying exact aluminum purity (99.8-99.9%) and low impurity levels to avoid reclassification to adjacent purity subheadings

Ensure documentation confirms non-alloyed status per chapter note (a), with Fe+Si ≤0.1% and other elements controlled
