Lead-Antimony Alloy Ingots from Germany
Ingots composed primarily of lead with antimony alloying elements, used in battery manufacturing and cable sheathing. Classified under HTS 7801.99.90 as unwrought lead alloys where lead content is less than 99% but the highest among metals, not refined or primary lead. This falls into 'Other' as it doesn't match specific alloy exclusions.

Import Tips
• Verify alloy composition via certified assay reports to confirm lead is the predominant metal under 99% weight
• Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) for hazardous lead content to comply with EPA and customs regulations
• Avoid misclassification as scrap (7802) by ensuring product is unwrought and suitable for further processing
