Overview

This HTS category, 8207.90.15.00, specifically covers files and rasps, encompassing both hand-held and rotary types. These tools are designed for shaping, abrading, or finishing materials by means of a cutting edge or abrasive surface. The classification extends to include parts and accessories specifically manufactured for these files and rasps.

While the parent category (8207.90) broadly covers "Other interchangeable tools," this subcategory narrows the scope to the distinct functionality of filing and rasping. It is differentiated from other interchangeable tools such as drills, milling cutters, or screwdriving bits by their unique material removal process, which relies on numerous small cutting teeth or abrasive particles rather than a single cutting edge or specialized head shape.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 8207.90.15.00 relies on confirming that the imported article is indeed a file or rasp, or a component thereof, designed for interchangeable use with hand tools or machine tools. Factors such as the tool's tooth pattern, material, and intended application in material removal are critical for accurate classification.
