HS Code 7608.10 – Aluminium; tubes and pipes, not alloyed
HS code 7608.10 is the 6-digit subheading for aluminium, tubes and pipes, not alloyed. It is used for non-alloyed aluminium tubing, pure aluminium pipes, aluminium conduit, HVAC aluminium pipes and irrigation aluminium tubes.
What HS 7608.10 covers
This HS code covers tubes and pipes made from non-alloyed aluminium. These products are fundamental components in various industries due to aluminium's lightweight, corrosion resistance, and good thermal conductivity. Importers typically include manufacturers in HVAC systems, automotive cooling, general construction, and electrical conduit production. Exporters are often primary aluminium producers or specialized extrusion plants in countries with significant aluminium processing capabilities. The trade in non-alloyed aluminium tubes and pipes is influenced by global infrastructure development, automotive production volumes, and demand for energy-efficient solutions. Key considerations for buyers include the specific diameter, wall thickness, temper (e.g., O, H14), and surface finish, as these properties dictate the tube's suitability for bending, welding, or specific pressure applications. Quality certifications are often required to ensure material integrity.

Codes often confused with 7608.10
Common mistake. This code can be confused with 760820 (alloyed aluminium tubes and pipes) due to the similar form, but the absence of alloying elements is the key differentiator.
Top exporters and importers of HS code 760810, 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 760810 in UN Comtrade data was China, with 25% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Mexico, with 17% 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 marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. 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).
