6506.10.60.30 - Motorcycle helmets 🖩

This classification, HTS 6506.10.60.30, specifically designates motorcycle helmets. These are protective head coverings designed to be worn by riders of motorcycles and similar motorized two-wheeled vehicles. Their primary function is to safeguard the wearer's head from impact in the event of an accident. Key characteristics typically include a rigid outer shell, an energy-absorbing liner, a retention system (chin strap), and often a face shield or visor.

This category is situated under "Other safety headgear," distinguishing it from more specialized safety headwear such as those for construction workers (e.g., hard hats) or industrial environments, which have different design specifications and intended uses. The "Other" designation at this level implies that motorcycle helmets do not fit into more specific safety headgear sub-classifications that might exist at higher levels of the tariff schedule.

As a leaf node, HTS 6506.10.60.30 has no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification relies on the specific identification of the product as a motorcycle helmet, fulfilling all requirements for protective headgear intended for motorcycle use, as opposed to other types of protective headwear. Classification within this code is contingent upon the item being primarily and demonstrably designed and marketed for motorcycle riders.
