Overview

This HTS category, 7409, encompasses copper plates, sheets, and strip that are thicker than 0.15 millimeters. These are semi-finished products of copper, meaning they are typically used as a raw material for further manufacturing processes rather than as finished consumer goods. The classification specifically focuses on the physical form (plate, sheet, strip) and a minimum thickness requirement, which distinguishes it from thinner foils or thicker cast/wrought forms of copper.

Within Section XV, Chapter 74, this category sits alongside other forms of copper and articles thereof, but crucially differs from categories covering unwrought copper (Chapter 74.01), other simple products of copper (Chapter 74.03), or finished articles made from copper. It is distinct from sibling categories that might cover different base metals or articles made from those metals, emphasizing that the material composition is specifically copper or its alloys.

The subcategories within 7409 further refine the classification based on the specific composition of the copper alloy. These subdivisions are critical for accurately determining import duties and adhering to trade regulations. For example, distinctions are made between pure refined copper and various copper-zinc (brass), copper-tin (bronze), copper-nickel, and other copper alloy compositions. This detailed breakdown allows for precise classification based on the metallurgical properties of the material.
