8302.60.90.00 - Parts

This HTS category, 8302.60.90.00, specifically covers "Parts" of automatic door closers made of base metal. This designation encompasses all individual components, subassemblies, and repair parts that are designed to be used in the construction or maintenance of automatic door closing mechanisms falling under HTS code 8302.60.30.00. Examples of such parts include pistons, hydraulic fluid reservoirs, mounting brackets, springs, arms, and casings, provided they are predominantly of base metal and intended for an automatic door closer.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 8302.60.30.00, which covers the complete, functional automatic door closer units themselves. While 8302.60.30.00 is for the finished product ready for installation, 8302.60.90.00 is strictly for the constituent elements that make up that product. This distinction is vital for accurate import and export declarations, as the classification dictates different tariff rates and regulatory requirements.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 8302.60.90.00 is on ensuring that the article in question is indeed a part intended for an automatic door closer and is primarily composed of base metal, aligning with the broader scope of Chapter 83 which deals with miscellaneous articles of base metal.
