Alternative Classifications

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

8466.94.85Higher: 42.2% vs 37.5%

If imported as integral part of a specific machine tool

Parts and accessories identifiable solely for use with machine tools like lathes fall under Chapter 84 headings for those machines.

8505.90.75Higher: 38.8% vs 37.5%

If permanent magnet type rather than electromagnetic

Permanent magnet chucks are classified separately from electromagnetic ones in the same heading but different subheading.

7326.90.86Higher: 40.4% vs 37.5%

If simple non-magnetic mechanical clamp

Non-electromagnetic holding devices made of base metal are classified under general iron/steel articles.
