8207.70Lower: 12.9% vs 39.8%

If for rock drilling or earth boring

Reamers specialized for rock or earth boring tools shift to 8207.70, separate from general metalworking reamers.

8208.90.30Lower: 35% vs 39.8%

If classified as a milling cutter

Multi-flute reamers resembling end mills may classify under 8208 for milling tools if primary function is side-and-face cutting.

8479.89Lower: 12.5% vs 39.8%

If for industrial machinery parts, not handtools

If integral to compiling machines or food industry equipment, moves to Chapter 84 as machinery parts.

Import Tips & Compliance

Label as 'hand reamer for general machining' to distinguish from machine-specific tools; avoid generic 'cutting tool' descriptions

Provide hardness ratings (e.g

Rockwell) and flute count in manifests; pitfalls include undervaluation based on small size

Ensure EU REACH compliance if carbide contains cobalt; test for restricted substances common in import audits
