Overview

This HTS category, 8202.40.60.30, specifically designates "In continuous lengths" for chain saw blades and their base metal parts. This includes blades designed for use with chain saws where the cutting edge is formed as a continuous loop or band. The primary characteristic for classification under this subheading is the form of the blade itself, which is manufactured as an unbroken loop intended for attachment to a power-driven chain saw mechanism.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 8202.40.60.60 "Other," by the specific mention of "In continuous lengths." The sibling category would encompass chain saw blades that do not meet this particular form, potentially including segmented blades or individual link components if they were classified at this level. The focus here is on the integrated, continuous nature of the cutting element.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 8202.40.60.30 relies on the direct assessment of the goods' physical form as a continuous length chain saw blade, aligning with the broader scope of Chapter 82 and the parent heading for chain saw blades.
