Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the brackets are for mounting capacitors within a larger control panel of heading 85.37.
Parts for control panels are classified under heading 85.38.
If the brackets are generic and not shaped for a specific capacitor model.
General-purpose metal articles are classified in Chapter 73.

Import Tips & Compliance
• > Provide documentation showing the brackets are specifically designed for capacitor mounting, not general-purpose brackets
• If the brackets are made of base metal, confirm they are not classified as parts of general use under Section XV
• Include model numbers of the capacitors they fit to support classification

Capacitor End Cap Assembly
> Pre-assembled metal end caps with terminal pins, designed to hermetically seal electrolytic capacitors. These assemblies are essential for the structural integrity and electrical connectivity of the capacitor, and are not usable independently.
Ceramic Disc Capacitor
> A fixed ceramic disc capacitor used for filtering and decoupling in electronic circuits. Although presented as a finished capacitor, it is a complete article of heading 85.32, not a part, and thus falls under the parts tariff item only if imported as a component for further assembly.
Electrolytic Capacitor Spacer
> Precision plastic or phenolic spacers used to separate capacitor elements inside aluminum electrolytic cans. These spacers maintain internal structure and insulation, and are essential for the capacitor's function, thus qualifying as parts of capacitors.
Film Capacitor Metallized Film
> Metallized polypropylene or polyester film rolls used as the dielectric in plastic film capacitors for power electronics. These semi-processed films are specifically manufactured for capacitor assembly and are not usable for other purposes, making them parts of fixed capacitors.
Mica Capacitor Silver Electrode Paste
> Silver-bearing conductive paste applied as electrodes on mica sheets for high-precision capacitors used in RF applications. This paste is a functional material essential for capacitor fabrication, and is considered a part of fixed capacitors when imported for that purpose.
MLCC Internal Electrode Paste
> Nickel or copper nano-particle paste printed as internal electrodes in multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). This material is essential for the capacitor's function and is not usable independently, thus qualifying as a part of fixed capacitors.
