HS Code 7605.29 – Aluminium; alloys, wire, maximum cross-sectional dimension is 7mm or less

HS code 7605.29 is the 6-digit subheading for aluminium, alloys, wire, maximum cross-sectional dimension is 7mm or less. It is used for aluminium alloy welding filler wire (small diameter), aluminium alloy rivet wire, aluminium alloy fine wire for aerospace, aluminium alloy wire for electronic components and aluminium alloy spring wire.

What HS 7605.29 covers

This HS code covers aluminium alloy wire with a maximum cross-sectional dimension of 7mm or less. This fine-gauge alloyed wire is a critical component in global trade, prized for its enhanced strength, fatigue resistance, and specific performance characteristics compared to unalloyed aluminium. It finds extensive use in applications where lightweight design, durability, and precise mechanical properties are essential. Major importers include countries with advanced manufacturing sectors, such as Japan, Germany, and the United States, which integrate these wires into aerospace fasteners, automotive components, consumer electronics, and specialized cables. Exporters often come from nations with sophisticated wire drawing capabilities and access to a range of alloying elements, including China, the USA, and European countries. Key trade considerations involve the specific alloy series, temper, and surface finish, which are crucial for meeting the stringent requirements of high-tech industries. The demand is driven by innovation in lightweighting and performance-critical applications.

Codes often confused with 7605.29

Common mistake. This code is often confused with 760519 (unalloyed wire 7mm or less) if the alloy content is not properly identified, and with 760521 (alloyed wire exceeding 7mm) due to the size threshold.

Top exporters and importers of HS code 760529, 2025

In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 760529 in UN Comtrade data was China, with 24% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Germany, with 9.7% 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).
