Copper; rivets, cotters, cotter-pins and similar articles, not threaded

HS v2022 Code: 741529

About copper; rivets, cotters, cotter-pins and similar articles, not threaded

HS code 741529 covers a range of copper fasteners and fittings, including rivets, cotters, and cotter pins. These products play a crucial role in various industries, providing secure connections and enabling the assembly of larger structures. As a key component in machinery, construction, and transportation, the demand for these copper articles is closely tied to the overall health of the global economy.

Production process

The production of copper rivets, cotters, and cotter pins typically involves a multi-step process. First, copper alloy is melted and cast into the desired shapes and sizes. The cast pieces are then subjected to various metalworking techniques, such as stamping, forging, or machining, to achieve the final product specifications. Quality control measures, including dimensional checks and surface finishing, are implemented throughout the manufacturing process to ensure the reliability and consistency of the final articles.

Production inputs

The primary input for the production of HS code 741529 articles is copper alloy, which is sourced from copper mining and refining operations. Additionally, manufacturers may require specialized machinery, such as stamping presses, forging equipment, and cutting tools, to shape and finish the copper components. Energy, in the form of electricity or fuel, is also a significant input for the melting, casting, and metalworking processes involved in the production of these copper fasteners and fittings.

Production outputs

The copper rivets, cotters, and cotter pins classified under HS code 741529 are used as fasteners and connectors in a wide range of applications, including machinery, construction, transportation, and consumer goods. The output from this industry is often consumed by manufacturers and assemblers in 842139 Machinery parts, 730890 Structures and parts of structures, and 870899 Parts and accessories for motor vehicles.
