U.S. exports of tin bars, rods, profiles, and wire (HS 800300) totaled $8.0M in July 2026.
Importers of Tin Bars, Rods, Profiles, and Wire paid $25K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 13% on $192K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Tin Bars, Rods, Profiles, and Wire imports of $5.3M in July 2026 ran 25% above the year-to-date monthly average of $4.2M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataTin bars, rods, profiles, and wire serve as intermediate wrought forms used primarily in soldering, plating, and specialty chemical applications, and all fall under a single US tariff line (8003000000). Mexico and Canada together account for the largest share of US import supply, with Japan also a notable source. Because this heading covers both solid cross-section shapes (bars and rods) and hollow or complex profiles, importers occasionally face classification disputes at the border when distinguishing tin wire from tin-coated copper wire, which would fall under Chapter 74.

HTS 8003000000 applies to wire made of tin as the base metal. Wire of another base metal (such as copper) that is merely coated or plated with tin is classified under the chapter governing the base metal — for example, tin-coated copper wire falls under Chapter 74. The essential character test focuses on the predominant metal by weight and value.
Electronics assembly (wave soldering and hand soldering), metal plating operations, and specialty chemical manufacturing are the primary end-use sectors. Tin bars are also consumed in pewter and bearing-alloy production. Demand tends to track printed-circuit-board manufacturing activity, making it sensitive to electronics industry cycles.
