8207.30.60.62 - Metal forming dies, including thread-rolling dies 🖩

This classification covers metal forming dies specifically designed for processes such as pressing, stamping, or punching, with the critical distinction that they are **not suitable for cutting metal**. This includes dies used to shape metal through plastic deformation rather than severing it. Examples include dies for bending, drawing, embossing, and coining operations where the metal's form is altered without being cut.

While sibling categories such as 8207.30.60.32 also cover stamping dies not suitable for cutting metal, this specific classification, 8207.30.60.62, is dedicated to metal forming dies with a particular emphasis on thread-rolling dies. Thread-rolling dies are specialized tools designed to form threads on fasteners by deforming the blank material, a key subset of metal forming operations that falls under this heading. This differentiates it from more general stamping or punching dies that might not be designed for the specific plastic deformation required for thread creation.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of a specific die under 8207.30.60.62 hinges on its primary function as a metal forming die, specifically excluding cutting applications, and its suitability for operations like thread rolling. Classification will depend on the physical characteristics and intended use of the die, confirming it is designed for deformation rather than shearing of the metal workpiece.
