Alternative Classifications

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

8477.90Same rate: 38.1%

If non-screw parts like barrels or dies

Other plastics machinery parts (e.g., cylinders) fall under the broader 8477.90.95 subheading, separate from specific barrel screws.

8466.94.85Higher: 39.7% vs 38.1%

If for metalworking injection machines

Screws designed for metal injection molding classify under Chapter 84 heading 8466 for metalworking machinery.

4009.42.00Lower: 20% vs 38.1%

If pre-assembled with rubber seals into a tube

Combination with rubber components may shift to Chapter 40 as rubber tubes/hoses if not primarily a machine part.
