Heading 7608 — Aluminium; tubes and pipes
Chapter 76: Aluminium and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 760820 when importing or exporting aluminium tubes and pipes made from alloys. For instance, if you're shipping a batch of alloy aluminium pipes for construction projects, this is the code you need.
This code specifically covers aluminium tubes and pipes that are not only made from aluminium but also include alloy compositions, distinguishing them from pure aluminium products under related codes like 760810, which focuses on non-alloy aluminium pipes.
When considering HS-6 760820, think about products like lightweight aluminium piping used in HVAC systems or structural applications. These items are often specified for their strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.
If you’re dealing with aluminium tubes that are seamless or welded, this code applies as long as they are made from alloys. Be careful not to confuse them with other aluminium products that might fall under different headings.
