Clad Aluminum 5052 Sheet from Germany
This is a rectangular aluminum plate exceeding 0.2 mm thickness, clad with a thin layer of pure aluminum on one or both sides for corrosion protection, based on non-alloyed aluminum core. It falls under HTS 7606.11.60.00 as 'clad' rectangular plates of aluminum, not alloyed. Commonly used in aerospace and marine applications requiring enhanced durability.

Import Tips
• Verify cladding thickness and confirm aluminum purity meets 'not alloyed' definition (>99% Al); provide mill test certificates for composition
• Ensure accurate thickness measurement to avoid reclassification to foil
• Watch for alloy content exceeding limits which shifts to 7606.12
