About HS Code 750512
This HS code covers semi-finished products made from nickel alloys, shaped into bars, rods, and profiles. These products are engineered to offer superior performance characteristics, such as exceptional high-temperature strength, extreme corrosion resistance, or specific magnetic properties, which are beyond what pure nickel can provide. They are vital for demanding applications in aerospace, petrochemical, marine, and power generation industries. Major importers are countries with advanced manufacturing capabilities that require high-performance materials, including the United States, Germany, France, and China. Exporters are typically specialized manufacturers in nations with strong metallurgical research and production, such as the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom. The trade in these alloy products is highly specification-driven, with material certifications, adherence to industry standards (e.g., ASTM, AMS), and traceability being critical for buyers.
Products Under This Code
Inconel bars, Hastelloy rods, Monel profiles, Nimonic alloy bars, Waspaloy rods, Nickel-chromium alloy profiles, High-temperature nickel alloy bars
Real World Examples
Special Metals Inconel 625 bar, VDM Metals Hastelloy C-276 rod, Haynes International Monel 400 profile, ATI Nickel Alloy 718 bar
Common Misclassification
This code is differentiated from bars, rods, and profiles of unalloyed nickel (750511) by the presence of alloying elements, and from unwrought nickel alloys (750220) by its semi-finished, shaped form.
Products Classified Under 7505.12
Industry
This code belongs to the Metals & Metal Products industry.
Trade Overview
The United States, Germany, and France are top importers, while the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom are significant exporters.
