Overview
This HTS classification, 6506.10.30.30, specifically designates motorcycle helmets. These are protective head coverings designed and constructed for use by operators and passengers of motorcycles, typically featuring a robust shell, impact-absorbing liner, and a retention system. The primary purpose is to provide safety by mitigating the risk of head injuries during accidents.
This category falls under "Of reinforced or laminated plastics" within the broader "Safety headgear" grouping. It is distinguished from other "Other headgear" by its explicit function as protective safety equipment for motorcycling. Within the safety headgear context, it is differentiated from other types of safety helmets (e.g., for construction, industrial, or sporting use) by its specific design and intended application for motorcycle riders.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under this code is determined by the product's primary function as a motorcycle helmet and its construction from reinforced or laminated plastics. Therefore, any article meeting these criteria, regardless of specific design variations (e.g., full-face, open-face, modular), would be classified here.
