3926.90.50.00 - Frames or mounts for photographic slides

This HTS category, 3926.90.50.00, specifically covers frames or mounts designed for holding photographic slides. These items are manufactured from plastics and serve the primary function of organizing, protecting, and presenting individual photographic slides, typically for viewing or archival purposes. The classification rests within the broader "Other articles of plastics" heading, indicating it's a residual category for plastic articles not more specifically provided for elsewhere.

Distinguishing this classification from its siblings is crucial. For instance, while other items like buckets, pacifiers, or handles are also classified under 3926.90, their distinct functionalities and forms set them apart. Frames or mounts for photographic slides are characterized by their specific design to accommodate the dimensions and requirements of photographic slides, differentiating them from general-purpose plastic containers or components. This category is a terminal node, meaning there are no further subdivisions; classification is solely based on the item's purpose as a photographic slide frame or mount.
