8207.19.60.70 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 8207.19.60.70, encompasses "Other" rock drilling or earth boring tools, including parts, that do not fall under the specific subcategories of interchangeable tools for rock drilling or earth boring. It is a residual category intended for tools and their components used in excavation, mining, and geological surveying operations that possess the fundamental characteristics of rock drilling or earth boring equipment but do not fit into more narrowly defined classifications.

This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 8207.19.60.65, which specifically covers rock drill bits and reamers where the working part is constructed from diamonds. Therefore, this category is for rock drilling or earth boring tools and their parts where the working element is made of materials *other than* diamonds. This would include tools with working parts made from hardened steel alloys, tungsten carbide, or other composite materials.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this specific code is determined by the exclusion from the diamond-working part category and the confirmation that the tool's primary function is indeed for rock drilling or earth boring, and that it is considered an interchangeable tool for hand tools or machine tools. The "Other" designation signifies that it is the final, most specific classification for items fitting this description within the established hierarchy.
