Overview
This HTS category, 6807.90.00, encompasses articles manufactured from asphalt or similar binding materials, such as petroleum bitumen or coal tar pitch, that are not presented in rolls. Unlike its sibling category 6807.10.00.00, which specifically covers such materials when wound into rolls, this classification addresses articles formed into distinct shapes or configurations for various applications. The defining characteristic is the use of asphaltic compounds as the primary binding agent in the construction of the article, excluding items solely composed of these materials in a flexible, rolled format.
The scope of 6807.90.00 is further delineated by its subcategories. 6807.90.00.10 pertains to articles specifically designed and manufactured for use in roofing or siding applications, implying specific performance characteristics and physical properties suited for weather protection and structural integrity in building exteriors. The remaining "Other" subcategory, 6807.90.00.50, serves as a residual classification for all other articles of asphalt or similar materials not meeting the criteria for roofing or siding and not presented in rolls. This includes a broad range of products, such as sealants, joint fillers, protective coatings, or other molded or fabricated articles utilizing these bituminous binders.
