7415.29.00.00 - Other

This HTS category, 7415.29.00.00, encompasses a variety of copper articles that are not threaded and are not washers (including spring washers). These are "similar articles" to screws, bolts, nuts, rivets, and cotters, but specifically exclude the items classified under the sibling category 7415.21.00.00. The common characteristic is their construction from copper and their non-threaded nature, serving purposes analogous to fasteners but without the threaded engagement mechanism.

The distinction from the sibling category 7415.21.00.00 is crucial. While both fall under "Other articles, not threaded," this specific code is for items that are *not* washers. Therefore, if a copper article is designed to distribute load or prevent loosening through a flat, ring-like shape, it would be classified as a washer under 7415.21.00.00. All other unthreaded copper articles of this type, such as certain types of pins, studs, or specialized connectors that do not fit the washer description, would fall under 7415.29.00.00.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this heading therefore relies on the precise definition of "washers" and ensuring the article is indeed made of copper, is unthreaded, and does not fit into more specific headings within Chapter 74 or other relevant chapters. Practical examples for this category could include certain types of split pins, metal dowels, or specialized unthreaded copper connector components not otherwise specified.
