Overview
This HTS category, 2903.19.60, encompasses "Other" saturated chlorinated derivatives of acyclic hydrocarbons that are not specifically enumerated under preceding subheadings within the 2903.19.00 series. These are compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine atoms arranged in open chains, where all carbon-carbon bonds are single bonds, and the chlorine atoms are attached to these saturated carbon chains.
To differentiate this category from its siblings, it's important to note the specific exclusions. Siblings such as 2903.19.05.00 cover specific dichlorinated propanes and butanes, while 2903.19.10.00 addresses hexachloroethane and tetrachloroethane. Similarly, 2903.19.30.00 is reserved for sec-butyl chloride. Therefore, 2903.19.60.00 acts as a residual category for other saturated acyclic chlorinated hydrocarbons not precisely defined elsewhere at this level.
Within this category, two primary subcategories are defined to further refine classification. Subcategory 2903.19.60.10 specifically identifies Methylchloroform (1,1,1-Trichloroethane), a distinct compound with its own tariff line. The remaining products within the scope of 2903.19.60.00 fall under subcategory 2903.19.60.50, designated as "Other," capturing all other qualifying saturated chlorinated acyclic hydrocarbons not otherwise specified.
