Common metals and their alloys, ores; metal materials for building and construction; transportable buildings of metal; non-electric cables and wires of common metal; small items of metal hardware; metal containers for storage or transport; safes.
Trademark applications and registrations in Class 6 over the past 15 years.
Class 6 covers common metals and their alloys, metal ores, metal building and construction materials, transportable buildings of metal, non-electric cables and wires of common metal, small items of metal hardware, metal containers for storage or transport, and safes. With over 72,100 live marks, the class serves the construction, manufacturing, and hardware industries, where brand identity in structural materials and components carries significant commercial weight.
Class 6 includes mainly unwrought and partly wrought common metals, including ores, as well as certain goods made of common metals.

Search TrademarksClass 6 covers building materials made of metal (steel beams, metal pipes, aluminum panels). Class 19 covers non-metallic building materials (concrete, bricks, wood, plastic pipes). The material composition determines the classification.
Metal furniture belongs in Class 20, not Class 6. Class 6 covers raw metal materials and hardware, while Class 20 covers finished furniture regardless of material.
No. Jewelry made from precious metals belongs in Class 14. Class 6 covers common metals (steel, aluminum, copper) and their alloys used in construction and hardware, not precious metals used in jewelry.
Yes. Metal containers for storage or transport, including shipping containers, metal drums, and metal crates, belong in Class 6. Non-metal containers (plastic bins, wooden crates) belong in Class 20.
Metal building components belong in Class 6 regardless of their manufacturing method. Whether a steel bracket is traditionally forged or 3D-printed, its classification is determined by the finished product (metal hardware), not the production process.
Yes. Transportable buildings of metal, including prefabricated metal sheds, modular metal structures, and metal carports, are specifically listed in Class 6. Non-metal prefabricated buildings belong in Class 19.
Non-electric cables and wires of common metal belong in Class 6. Electric cables and wires are classified in Class 9. The distinction is whether the wire conducts electricity (Class 9) or serves a structural or mechanical purpose (Class 6).
Metal signs, nameplates, and license plate frames made of common metals are generally classified in Class 6 as small items of metal hardware. However, if a metal sign is primarily decorative art, it could fall under Class 20 or Class 26.
Hardware brands typically file across Class 6 (metal hardware and fasteners), Class 8 (hand tools), Class 7 (power tools), and Class 20 (non-metal hardware). Adding Class 35 for retail store services and Class 37 for installation services creates comprehensive coverage.
