Overview
This HTS subheading, 8202.39.00, encompasses circular saw blades and their parts, specifically those that are not classified under the sibling category of 8202.31.00.00. The primary distinction lies in the material of the working part. While 8202.31.00.00 covers blades with working parts made of steel, this category is for circular saw blades and their components where the working element is not primarily steel, or where other specific materials are utilized. This often includes blades designed for specialized cutting applications or those incorporating advanced materials beyond standard steel.
Further subdivisions exist within this category to refine classification based on the specific composition and form of the article. The subcategories for 8202.39.00.10 and 8202.39.00.40 highlight the importance of diamond as a working material, differentiating between complete blades with diamond working parts and diamond sawblade cores. These distinctions are crucial for accurately applying the tariff, reflecting the different functionalities and value associated with diamond-edged cutting tools.
The residual category, 8202.39.00.70, serves as a catch-all for any other circular saw blades and parts thereof that fall under 8202.39.00 but do not fit into the more specific diamond-related subcategories. This ensures that all circular saw blades and their components not explicitly classified elsewhere within 8202.39 are appropriately accounted for, maintaining the integrity of the classification system.
