4417.00.80.10 - Tool handles

This HTS category, 4417.00.80.10, specifically classifies tool handles made of wood. These are designed to be attached to various tools, such as hammers, axes, shovels, and agricultural implements, to provide a grip for the user. The material composition must be wood, and the primary function must be as a handle for a tool.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 4417.00.80.90, which is designated for "Other" tool handles. While both fall under the broader heading of wooden tool handles, 4417.00.80.10 is reserved for those items that fit the specific definition of "tool handles" as described. The distinction is important for accurate import and export declarations, ensuring that goods are properly identified and taxed.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 4417.00.80.10 is therefore definitive for wooden tool handles that do not fall into any other more specific HTS classification. The focus is on the material (wood) and the function (as a handle for a tool), excluding items that might be combined with other materials or serve a different primary purpose.
