Minimum order and container quantity
Minimum order
10,000 pcs
or half / full container, as per your requirement
Half container (20ft)
about half of that
Full container (20ft)
several million pcs (depends on size)
A standard 20ft container (~20 tons) typically holds several million to over ten million circlips in common shaft/bore sizes. Exact quantity depends on size and is confirmed at quote time.
The minimum order is 10,000 pcs, so you don't need a full container to order: half-container and smaller LCL orders are available as well. Hurain Engitech & Trade — the group Global Fasteners Exports operates under — regularly ships smaller, partial-container (LCL) orders of just a few pallets or boxes for buyers who don't yet need FCL volume, consolidated with other cargo to keep freight cost reasonable.

HS Code & Customs Classification
Most fasteners fall under HS Chapter 73 (articles of iron or steel) or Chapter 74/76 for brass and aluminum items — the exact 8-10 digit subheading depends on the specific product and material. We include the HS code on the commercial invoice; confirm the applicable import duty with your customs broker, since rates vary by country and trade agreement.
Packaging & Export Labeling
Export packing is chosen to survive ocean freight and container loading without corrosion or damage: corrosion-protected paper or oil coating where needed, then cartons, drums, or bulk bags, palletized or crated for the container. We can match specific labeling, barcoding, or carton-marking requirements for OEM and repeat buyers.
