1/2 Inch Tungsten Carbide Tipped Masonry Drill Bit

A 1/2-inch diameter drill bit with tungsten carbide cutting inserts exceeding 0.2% tungsten by weight, suitable for drilling into concrete or brick in non-rock applications. Falls under HTS 8207.50.20.80 due to its high tungsten content and design as an interchangeable tool for hand or power drills, excluding rock drilling. Provides superior wear resistance for construction tasks.

Alternative Classifications

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

8207.50Same rate: 40%

If not containing specified alloys

Carbide-tipped bits without Cr/Mo/W/V thresholds use carbide-specific subheadings based on material rather than alloy steel composition.

8207.13.00Lower: 38.6% vs 40%

If specifically for rock drilling

Dedicated rock or earth boring tools are segregated into their own subheading, irrespective of cutting material or alloy levels.
