6061 Aluminum Alloy Billet from Germany

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
