Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8207.19.30Higher: 40% vs 37.9%

If the bit incorporates PDC cutters rather than surface-set diamonds

PDC (polycrystalline diamond compact) rock drill bits have a separate specific subheading.

8431.49.90Lower: 35% vs 37.9%

If when imported as parts of complete drilling rigs rather than standalone tools

Assembled drill bit components for specific machinery models classify as parts of boring machines.

8209.00.00Higher: 39.6% vs 37.9%

If for diamond-tipped tools primarily used in metalworking rather than rock

Interchangeable diamond tools for machining metals fall under the general bars and plates heading.
