Overview
This HTS category, 4012.19.20.00, specifically classifies retreaded pneumatic tires of rubber that do not fall under any more specific subheading. The key defining characteristic is that these tires are designed for use with tractors falling under specific subheadings (8701.91.10 through 8701.95.10) or for agricultural and horticultural machinery and implements found within Chapter 84 or subheading 8716.80.10. This implies a focus on tires intended for heavy-duty, specialized applications in the agricultural and industrial sectors.
At this level, the "Other" designation indicates that this subheading captures retreaded tires not categorized as new or demonstrably used tires under sibling categories. The crucial differentiator for this specific code lies in its intended application; if a retreaded tire is designed for general passenger vehicles, for instance, it would likely be classified elsewhere. The specific mention of tractor and agricultural machinery types is paramount for accurate classification within this code.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to explore. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the physical state of the tire (retreaded) and its designated purpose as outlined in the description, ensuring that only those tires fitting the specific agricultural and horticultural equipment criteria are included here.
