HS Code 7508.10 – Nickel; cloth, grill and netting, of nickel wire
HS code 7508.10 is the 6-digit subheading for nickel, cloth, grill and netting, of nickel wire. It is used for nickel wire mesh, pure nickel woven cloth, nickel filter screens, nickel battery electrodes and nickel EMI shielding mesh.
What HS 7508.10 covers
This HS code encompasses woven or knitted products made from nickel wire, such as cloth, grill, and netting. These specialized materials are highly valued in international trade for their unique combination of corrosion resistance, high-temperature stability, and precise filtration or shielding capabilities. They find critical applications in industries requiring robust and inert screens, filters, or electrodes. Major importers include chemical processing plants, battery manufacturers, aerospace companies, and research laboratories, where these nickel wire products are used for filtration, catalyst support, or electromagnetic shielding. Exporters are typically specialized manufacturers with expertise in drawing fine nickel wire and precision weaving or knitting. Key trade considerations include mesh size, wire diameter, weave pattern, and specific alloy composition if applicable (though the code specifies "of nickel wire," implying non-alloyed or predominantly nickel). The demand for these products is driven by niche industrial requirements for durable and high-performance separation and shielding solutions.

Codes often confused with 7508.10
Common mistake. This code can be confused with similar products made from other metals, such as 731414 (stainless steel woven cloth) or 741980 (other articles of copper wire), if the material composition is not clearly identified. It's also distinct from unwrought nickel wire (750511).
Top exporters and importers of HS code 750810, 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 750810 in UN Comtrade data was South Korea, with 27% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was China, with 28% of world imports. Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.

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).
