U.S. exports of copper rivets, cotters, cotter pins & similar non-threaded fasteners (HS 741529) totaled $2.3M in July 2026.
Importers of Copper Rivets, Cotters, Cotter Pins & Similar Non-Threaded Fasteners paid $719K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 51% on $1.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Copper Rivets, Cotters, Cotter Pins & Similar Non-Threaded Fasteners imports of $1.6M in July 2026 ran 22% above the year-to-date monthly average of $1.3M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataRivets, cotters, and cotter pins of copper serve structural and mechanical retention functions in applications ranging from electrical bus-bar assemblies to decorative hardware, where the combination of conductivity, corrosion resistance, and workability is valued. The single 10-digit line 7415290000 covers all non-threaded copper fasteners of this type not elsewhere specified, distinguishing them from the washers of 7415.21 and the threaded fasteners of 7415.33 and 7415.39. Taiwan and China are the dominant US suppliers, with Germany and Switzerland representing precision-grade sourcing. Importers classifying copper rivets should confirm the article is non-threaded and not a washer to avoid misclassification within the 7415 group.

Heading 7415 specifically covers nails, tacks, staples, washers, rivets, cotters, screws, bolts, and nuts — fastening articles with defined mechanical functions. Heading 7419 is a residual 'articles of copper, NESOI' category. A copper rivet with a defined shank and head designed for mechanical fastening belongs in 7415.29; a decorative copper pin or clip without a fastening function would more likely fall under 7419.
The US does not have a free trade agreement with Switzerland, so Swiss-origin copper rivets enter at the applicable MFN duty rate. Switzerland's presence among top suppliers reflects its precision-manufacturing reputation for specialty fasteners used in watchmaking, instrumentation, and aerospace applications, where dimensional tolerances justify the premium over lower-cost sources.
