U.S. imports of aluminum nails, tacks, staples, screws, bolts, nuts, rivets & similar fasteners (HS 761610) totaled $8.6M in April 2026, traded with 44 countries.
Importers of Aluminum Nails, Tacks, Staples, Screws, Bolts, Nuts, Rivets & Similar Fasteners paid $2.0M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 27% on $7.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataAluminum fasteners — spanning nails, rivets, cotters, threaded screws and bolts, washers, and similar articles — are widely used in aerospace, marine, construction, and electronics assembly where corrosion resistance and light weight outweigh the tensile strength of steel alternatives. The US schedule subdivides by fastener type and, for threaded articles, by shank diameter relative to 6 mm, making dimensional documentation on commercial invoices critical. France and Taiwan lead US supply, with China, Mexico, and Germany rounding out the top sources.

The US tariff lines under 761610 split threaded fasteners and similar articles by whether the shank, hole, or equivalent dimension exceeds or is under 6 mm. Lines 7616107030 and 7616107090 cover items over 6 mm, while 7616109030 and 7616109090 cover those under 6 mm. Because these lines can carry different duty rates, importers must ensure that commercial invoices and packing lists specify actual measured shank diameters rather than nominal size designations.
Rivets are specifically called out in their own line (7616103000) because they are mechanically distinct — they are deformed during installation to create a permanent joint, unlike threaded fasteners that can be removed. This distinction matters when a shipment contains mixed fastener types: rivets must be separately identified and classified, and blind rivets with a mandrel may warrant additional scrutiny to confirm they remain within Chapter 76 rather than being classifiable as a composite article under another chapter.
