Aluminium; stranded wire, cables, plaited bands and the like, (not electrically insulated), with steel core

HS code 761410 covers the production and trade of aluminium stranded wire, cables, plaited bands, and similar products with a steel core. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader metal manufacturing and construction sectors, providing essential materials for a wide range of applications, from electrical infrastructure to industrial machinery. As a key component in the global supply chain, the 761410 industry is a significant contributor to economic activity and international trade.

The production of 761410 aluminium products typically involves a multi-step process. First, aluminium is smelted and cast into the desired shapes and sizes. The aluminium is then drawn into wires or extruded into cables and bands. Finally, the aluminium components are combined with a steel core, often through a process of wrapping or braiding, to create the final stranded wire, cable, or plaited band product.

The main inputs required for the 761410 industry include raw aluminium, steel for the core, and specialized machinery for the drawing, extruding, and braiding processes. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce, energy sources, and transportation infrastructure to support the manufacturing and distribution of these products.

The primary outputs of the 761410 industry are aluminium stranded wire, cables, and plaited bands with a steel core. These products are widely used in the construction, electrical, and industrial sectors, often as components in 854420 Electric conductors, for a voltage not exceeding 1,000 V, fitted with connectors, 731210 Stranded wire, ropes, cables, plaited bands, slings and the like, of iron or steel, not electrically insulated, and 731300 Barbed wire of iron or steel; twisted hoop or single flat wire, barbed or not, and loosely twisted double wire, of a kind used for fencing, of iron or steel.
