7419.20.00.50 - Other

This HTS category, 7419.20.00.50, encompasses "Other" articles of copper that have undergone casting, molding, stamping, or forging processes but have not been subjected to further working. This designation serves as a residual category for articles of copper in these basic formed states that do not fit into more specific subheadings within the broader Chapter 74. It includes a diverse range of items where the fundamental shape has been achieved through these metal-forming techniques.

In contrast to the sibling category 7419.20.00.10, which specifically designates brass plumbing goods, this "Other" category is not limited to a particular application or material composition beyond being primarily of copper. Therefore, while brass plumbing goods are a type of formed copper article, they are segregated for specific tariff treatment. This category captures a wider array of copper articles whose defining characteristic is their formation through casting, molding, stamping, or forging, without further refinement or assembly.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification into 7419.20.00.50 is therefore determined by the exclusion of the article from more specific provisions and its adherence to the description of being a copper article that is cast, molded, stamped, or forged but not further worked. Practical classification will rely on understanding the manufacturing process and the absence of subsequent operations that would place the article into a different HTS subheading.
