10x18mm 100uF 16V Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

This compact aluminum electrolytic capacitor measures 10mm in diameter and 18mm in height with a 100 microfarad capacitance at 16V rating. It falls under HTS 8532.22.0020 as a fixed aluminum electrolytic capacitor not exceeding 18mm in diameter, commonly used in consumer electronics for power supply filtering. Its radial lead design suits through-hole PCB mounting in compact devices.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8532.29.00Same rate: 37.5%

If made of tantalum instead of aluminum

Tantalum electrolytic capacitors fall under subheading 8532.29 for other dielectric fixed electrolytic types.

8532.90.00.00Same rate: 37.5%

If imported as loose parts without leads for assembly

Unfinished capacitor components or parts thereof are classified under the parts heading 8532.90.

8536.90.40.00Same rate: 37.5%

If assembled into a complete electronic module for apparatus

When integrated into circuit boards or modules, they may shift to heading 8536 for electrical apparatus.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify capacitance, voltage rating, and diameter (<18mm) match HTS specs; provide test reports for customs valuation

• Include RoHS compliance certificates as electronics importers face strict environmental regs; avoid misdeclaration as variable caps

• Package in anti-static trays to prevent damage; common pitfall is incorrect tolerance labeling leading to reclassification
