Magnetic Sheet Metal Straightener
Uses electromagnetic fields to flatten and straighten coiled sheet metal without mechanical contact or material removal. HTS 8463.90.0080 covers this innovative metalworking process.
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If multifunctional with material handling
Combined function machines classified as other machinery.
If imported solely as electromagnetic components
Electromagnets without metalworking function go to Chapter 85.
Not sure which classification is right?
The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right HTS code — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide electromagnetic field strength specifications for customs valuation
• Include safety interlocks certification for high-power magnetic systems
• Demonstrate non-thermal operation to distinguish from heat straighteners
