7616.10.90 - Other

This category, HTS Code 7616.10.90, encompasses a broad range of miscellaneous aluminum articles that fall under the broader heading of fasteners and similar items. Specifically, it includes aluminum articles that are not otherwise specified in the preceding subheadings related to nails, tacks, staples, screws, bolts, nuts, rivets, washers, and the like. The "Other" designation signifies that these items do not fit neatly into more precisely defined categories within the fasteners group.

To differentiate this category from its sibling, 7616.10.70, it's crucial to note that this subdivision applies to items that do not possess shanks, threads, or holes exceeding 6 mm in diameter. While 7616.10.70 focuses on larger diameter fasteners, 7616.10.90 captures the smaller, less defined, or non-threaded aluminum articles within this group.

This category is further refined by its subcategories. HTS Code 7616.10.90.30 specifically covers aluminum threaded fasteners, such as small machine screws or specialized bolts not covered by the larger diameter sibling category. The remaining items fall under HTS Code 7616.10.90.90, designated as "Other," which can include a variety of small aluminum parts with fastener-like characteristics or related functions that don't fit any other specific description.
