Overview

This HTS category, 8301.10.60.20, specifically covers padlocks that are not over 3.8 cm in width and are of cylinder or pin tumbler construction. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is the presence of a lock body that incorporates hardened steel components. Furthermore, these lock bodies must have an attached or insertable flexible cable. This cable is constructed from wire strands and hardened steel beads, providing an additional security feature.

The primary distinction of this category from its sibling, 8301.10.60.80 (Other), lies in the specific composition and design of the locking mechanism and its associated flexible cable. While the sibling category encompasses all other padlocks of cylinder or pin tumbler construction not exceeding 3.8 cm in width that do not meet the criteria of this specific subcategory, 8301.10.60.20 focuses exclusively on those featuring the integrated hardened steel beaded cable.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this code is therefore determined by the precise fulfillment of the outlined physical and material attributes of the padlock. Importers and exporters should carefully verify the presence and nature of the hardened steel components and the specific construction of the flexible cable when classifying goods under this heading.
