7002.39.00.10 - Of a length not exceeding 200 mm

This HTS category, 7002.39.00.10, specifically classifies glass tubes that are unworked and have a length not exceeding 200 millimeters. These tubes, while falling under the broader heading for glass in balls, rods, or tubes, are distinguished by their defined short length. This limitation is a key factor for classification under this particular subheading.

The primary distinction of this category lies in its explicit length constraint compared to its sibling, 7002.39.00.90, which covers "Other" unworked glass tubes. While both fall under the "Other" tubes subheading within 7002.39, this specific code targets only those tubes where the measurement from end to end is 200 mm or less. This granular detail is crucial for accurate tariff application.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus remains on understanding the precise scope of unworked glass tubes defined by their short length. Importers and exporters should ensure that the physical dimensions of their goods precisely match this criterion to correctly apply the 7002.39.00.10 classification.
