High-Voltage Copper Welding Cable from Germany
This insulated copper cable is designed for voltages exceeding 1,000 V, commonly used in industrial welding applications to deliver power to welding torches. It falls under HTS 8544.60.40.00 because it is an insulated electric conductor made of copper for high-voltage use, not fitted with connectors. The heavy-duty insulation protects against extreme heat and mechanical stress.

Import Tips
• Verify copper purity and insulation voltage rating with test certificates to meet UL standards; declare exact voltage exceeding 1,000V to avoid reclassification; watch for anti-dumping duties on certain copper cables from specific countries
