6061 Aluminum Alloy Billet from Canada
6061 aluminum alloy billets are cylindrical unwrought forms used for extrusion into profiles and tubes in construction and transportation sectors. With about 1% magnesium, 0.6% silicon, and 0.25% copper, it qualifies as an alloy since non-aluminum elements exceed 1% total by weight per chapter note (b). Falls under 7601.20.90.95 as other unwrought aluminum alloys.

Import Tips
• Submit detailed chemical composition reports from accredited labs to verify alloy status and prevent misclassification
• Specify billet dimensions and intended use in entry docs; oversized billets may trigger review for wrought status
• Avoid common pitfall of incomplete harmonized system declarations—include full HTS path from Chapter 76
