U.S. imports of unwrought nickel, not alloyed (HS 750210) totaled $100.9M in April 2026, traded with 11 countries.
Unwrought Nickel, Not Alloyed imports of $100.9M in April 2026 ran 16% below the year-to-date monthly average of $120.4M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataPure unwrought nickel — cathodes, pellets, briquettes, and similar refined forms containing no intentional alloying additions — is a foundational industrial metal used in stainless steel production, electroplating, and battery manufacturing. Classified under 7502100000, this product is widely traded and can be subject to Section 232 tariffs depending on origin and any applicable exclusions. Canada and Norway are the leading suppliers to the US, both home to major electrolytic and carbonyl nickel refineries with long-standing export relationships. Buyers should confirm that the product meets the 'not alloyed' threshold, as even small additions of cobalt or copper can shift classification to unwrought nickel alloys under 7502200000.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The HTS does not specify a fixed percentage threshold; classification turns on whether alloying elements were intentionally added to modify properties. Products with incidental trace impurities from the refining process generally remain 'not alloyed,' while products where elements such as copper, cobalt, or chromium were deliberately introduced to achieve specific metallurgical properties classify as nickel alloys under 7502200000. Mill certificates specifying intentional composition are the key supporting document.
Canada is a USMCA partner, and qualifying originating goods may be eligible for preferential tariff treatment under that agreement. However, Section 232 tariff measures on nickel products may interact with or override standard USMCA rates depending on current proclamations and any country-specific arrangements. Importers should verify the applicable duty treatment with a licensed customs broker at the time of entry.
