Overview
This HTS code, 7102.29.00.50, classifies "Other" industrial diamonds that are not rough, but have undergone some form of working. This category encompasses industrial diamonds that have been processed beyond their initial natural state, such as by sawing, cleaving, grinding, or polishing, but have not yet been mounted or set into jewelry or other articles. The key differentiator is that these diamonds are intended for industrial applications, rather than for ornamental or gem purposes.
This classification is distinct from its sibling category, "Miners' diamonds" (presumably referring to rough industrial diamonds). While both are industrial diamonds, miners' diamonds are in their natural, unworked state, whereas the goods classified under 7102.29.00.50 have undergone specific mechanical processes to shape them for particular industrial uses. The "Other" designation signifies that these worked industrial diamonds do not fall into any more specific subcategories within the industrial diamond classification.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification within this category relies on identifying the material as diamond, its intended use as industrial, and the fact that it has been worked but not mounted or set. Examples could include diamond powders for abrasives, diamond tools for cutting or grinding, or specialized industrial diamond components that do not fit into more narrowly defined industrial diamond classifications.
