Overview
This HTS classification, 8202.91.30.00, specifically designates hacksaw blades. These are straight, narrow saw blades characterized by their toothed edge, designed for cutting metal. They are typically used in hand-operated hacksaws or in powered sawing machines where a straight cut through metal is required. The defining feature is their suitability for metalworking applications.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 8202.91.60.00, which covers "Other" straight saw blades. While both fall under "Straight saw blades, for working metal," 8202.91.30.00 is reserved for the common hacksaw blade. The "Other" category would encompass straight metal-cutting saw blades that do not fit the specific definition of a hacksaw blade, perhaps due to size, tooth configuration, or intended use in specialized metal-cutting machinery.
As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within 8202.91.30.00 is on ensuring the article is indeed a straight saw blade intended for working metal and fits the typical description of a hacksaw blade. The material composition will generally be base metal, consistent with Chapter 82.
