HS Code 7102.29 – Diamonds; industrial, (other than unworked or simply sawn, cleaved or bruted), but not mounted or set
HS code 7102.29 is the 6-digit subheading for diamonds, industrial, (other than unworked or simply sawn, cleaved or bruted), but not mounted or set. It is used for industrial diamond grits, diamond powder, diamond micro-powder, polycrystalline diamond (PCD) blanks and diamond wire drawing dies.
What HS 7102.29 covers
This HS code covers industrial diamonds that have undergone some processing beyond their raw state (like sawing, cleaving, or bruting) but are not yet mounted or set into tools or jewelry. These diamonds are critical for a wide range of industrial applications due to their extreme hardness, thermal conductivity, and wear resistance. In international trade, they are primarily imported by manufacturers of cutting tools, grinding wheels, drill bits, abrasives, and specialized machinery for industries such as mining, construction, automotive, and electronics. Exporters are diamond processing companies, often located near diamond mining regions or in major diamond trading centers. Key things to know include the diamond's size, shape, quality (e.g., clarity, color, absence of flaws), and whether it's natural or synthetic, as these factors significantly impact its suitability for specific industrial uses and its market value.

Top exporters and importers of HS code 710229, 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 710229 in UN Comtrade data was the United States, with 27% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Indonesia, with 40% of world imports. Botswana did not report 2025 data, and its estimate from partner records misses its trade with other countries that did not report: in 2024 that was 99% of its exports here ($9.1M, CEPII BACI), so it may also belong among the top exporters.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
