Lead-Tin Solder Alloy Ingots
Unwrought ingots composed primarily of lead alloyed with tin, used in electronics soldering applications. Classified under HTS 7801.99.90.30 as an alloy of lead where lead content is less than 99% but the highest metallic component, distinguishing it from pure lead (7801.10).

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If marketed as consumer solder wire rather than unwrought
Drawn or formed into wire for retail sale shifts to Chapter 80 for tin alloys.
If flux-added for soldering preparations
Prepared chemical products like solder paste fall under Chapter 38 chemical preparations.
If processed into bars or rods >99% lead
If remelted and cast into profiles, it becomes lead bars under 7806, not unwrought.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify lead content via assay certificate to confirm <99% lead and highest metallic element per statistical note
• Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) for hazardous classification and EPA compliance
• Avoid misclassification as pure lead; test for alloy composition to prevent duty adjustments
