Bimetallic Temperature Reactive Strip from Germany
Metallic bimetallic strip composed of two bonded metals with different thermal expansion coefficients, mechanically reactive by bending in response to temperature changes. HTS 8533.90.40.00 covers such metallic parts for 8533.40 goods used in thermal switches and thermostats. Essential for mechanical temperature control in HVAC systems.

Import Tips
• Document specific metal composition and deflection rates to prove mechanical reactivity; import unassembled to stay under parts classification; beware of complete switch classification under 8536
