If designed for arc welding machines of heading 8515
Parts of complete arc welding machines including power sources classify under 8515, not 8468.
If primarily electrical switches or connections
Electrical apparatus for switching falls in Chapter 85 when not integral to welding function.
If for parts of other handheld metalworking machines
If multifunctional for grinding/polishing rather than welding, moves to Chapter 84 metalworking parts.
