Aluminium coil, sheet & plate|HS Code

Aluminium coil, sheet & plate harmonized system code

Product Overview The Aluminium Coil, Sheet & Plate under HS Code 7606 is a category of aluminium products that are processed into flat-rolled form. These products are characterized by their high malleability, light weight, resistance to corrosion, and excellent thermal conductivity. The products under this HS Code are often differentiated based on thickness, alloy composition, temper, and coating type. Specifically, the Aluminium Coil, Sheet & Plate under HS Code 7606 can be further divided into subcategories: non-alloyed aluminium products (760611), aluminium alloys (760612), and rectangular plates (760691 and 760692). These aluminium materials are predominantly utilized in the food service industry for packaging, in the retail sector for display panels, and in various processing industries for machinery components. The market positioning of these products is based on their combination of durability, cost-effectiveness, and versatility compared to other metal materials. HS Code Classification & Trade Specifications The HS Code 7606 for Aluminium Coil, Sheet & Plate belongs to Chapter 76 (Articles of aluminium) and specifically falls under the heading 06 (Aluminium plates, sheets and strip, of a thickness exceeding 0.2 mm). The rationale behind the classification of these products under this code is their shared physical attributes and common use in trade. In terms of trade considerations, these aluminium products are typically packaged in wooden pallets or crates to prevent damage during transit. They are also often covered with a protective layer to safeguard against environmental elements. Shipping these products requires adherence to specific guidelines set by international shipping and customs authorities. In line with WTO and customs standards, these products must meet specific quality standards such as ASTM International or EU EN standards. The products' physical and chemical properties, including alloy composition and temper, must be clearly documented to facilitate customs classification and trade documentation.
