SITCSection 7
U.S. imports of fixed electrical resistors, not elsewhere specified (SITC 77232) totaled $64.8M in April 2026, traded with 49 countries.
Importers of Fixed Electrical Resistors, Not Elsewhere Specified paid $12.4M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 20% on $62.2M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Fixed Electrical Resistors, Not Elsewhere Specified imports of $64.8M in April 2026 ran 31% above the year-to-date monthly average of $49.6M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataFixed resistors not captured by the carbon composition or film category — including wirewound fixed types, metal oxide film, metal film, and thick-film network resistors — fall here as a residual grouping. These components serve precision instrumentation, power electronics, and high-frequency RF applications where carbon-based elements cannot meet stability or power-handling requirements. The breadth of the NES category means importers must pay close attention to the corresponding HTS 10-digit classification, since wirewound, metal film, and network resistor types may land on different tariff lines with different Section 301 exposure. Specification sheets citing resistance value, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and construction method are essential supporting documents for correct classification.

This residual heading picks up metal film, metal oxide film, thick-film network arrays, and fixed wirewound resistors — essentially any fixed resistor whose resistive element is not carbon-based composition or carbon film. Resistor networks (multiple resistors in a single package) also commonly fall here, and their array configuration can raise additional classification questions.
A detailed technical datasheet specifying the resistive element material (e.g., metal film, metal oxide, wirewound), construction method, power rating, and tolerance is the most effective supporting document. Commercial invoices that use generic terms like 'resistor' without specifying type frequently trigger CBP requests for additional information, delaying entry.
