7411Copper tubes and pipes

Chapter 74: Copper and articles thereof

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 7411 when importing copper tubes and pipes, such as those used in plumbing or HVAC systems. This heading covers refined copper products as well as various copper alloys.

Deciding between the subheadings can be tricky. For example, HS-6 741110 is for tubes made of refined copper, while HS-6 741121 covers tubes made from brass, a copper-zinc alloy. If your product is a brass tube, use 741121 instead of 741110.

If your copper pipes contain nickel, you’ll want to look at HS-6 741122, which is for cupro-nickel and nickel-silver alloys. On the other hand, HS-6 741129 is for other copper alloys not specified in the previous lines. Be sure to check the composition of your product carefully.
