Overview
This HTS category encompasses pumps specifically designed for the dispensing of fuel or lubricants. It includes devices commonly found in automotive service environments such as filling stations, repair garages, and workshops. The key characteristic defining this classification is the pump's intended use for accurately delivering measured quantities of liquid fuels (like gasoline or diesel) or lubricating oils.
This specific classification is distinguished from its sibling, 8413.19.00.00 ("Other"), by the explicit mention of the *type* of application. While 8413.19.00.00 would cover other pumps fitted with measuring devices not intended for fuel or lubricant dispensing in service stations or garages, this category is narrowly focused on those particular applications. The inclusion of the phrase "of the type used in filling-stations or in garages" is critical for differentiating these specialized dispensing pumps.
As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 8413.11.00.00 hinges entirely on the pump's design and its intended purpose as a fuel or lubricant dispenser for automotive service environments, coupled with the presence of an integrated or attachable measuring device. Examples include mechanical hand pumps with integrated flow meters or electric pumps designed for direct connection to fuel hoses and lubrication systems in service bays.
