7607.11.90.30 - Body stock 🖩

This category encompasses aluminum foil that is rolled but not further worked, specifically designed for use as "body stock" in the manufacturing of aluminum cans. It is characterized by its specific thickness and its intended application in forming the main cylindrical body of beverage or food cans. The material is typically supplied in large rolls and is ready for subsequent processing such as shaping, sealing, and decorating.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, "lid stock" (HTS 7607.11.90.60), is crucial for accurate classification. While both are forms of aluminum foil intended for can production, body stock is used for the primary cylindrical portion of the can, whereas lid stock refers to the foil used for the can's opening or closure mechanism, often featuring specialized coatings or tamper-evident features.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this specific HTS code. Therefore, the classification relies on the precise identification of the material as aluminum foil, not backed, rolled but not further worked, and specifically designated for use as aluminum can body stock. The absence of further subdivisions means that all qualifying aluminum body stock for can manufacturing falls directly under this code, provided it meets the preceding criteria of thickness and prior processing stages.
