3926.20.10.20 - Disposable

This HTS classification, 3926.20.10.20, specifically covers disposable gloves, mittens, and mitts manufactured from plastics or other materials covered within headings 3901 to 3914. The defining characteristic for inclusion in this subcategory is their intended single-use or limited-use nature. This designation distinguishes them from reusable or more durable garments within the broader category of apparel and clothing accessories.

The "Disposable" descriptor is crucial for differentiation. While the sibling category, 3926.20.10.50, encompasses "Other" gloves, mittens, and mitts, this particular code focuses on items designed for short-term application, such as those used in healthcare, food service, or laboratory environments. The material composition will be plastics or other specified materials, but the key differentiator remains their disposability.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification at this level relies entirely on accurately identifying the goods as disposable gloves, mittens, or mitts made from the materials specified in Chapter 39, aligning with the overarching scope of articles of plastics.
