8413.30.90.90 - Other

This classification, HTS Code 8413.30.90.90, pertains to "Other" pumps designed for internal combustion piston engines that are not specifically categorized as fuel, lubricating, or cooling medium pumps. This broad residual category encompasses pumps that may serve auxiliary functions within an engine system, or pumps that have characteristics that do not align with the more specific designations of the sibling categories.

It is crucial to distinguish this "Other" category from its siblings. HTS Code 8413.30.90.30 specifically covers pumps dedicated to delivering fuel to the engine's combustion chamber, while HTS Code 8413.30.90.60 is for pumps responsible for circulating lubricating oil to reduce friction and wear. Therefore, HTS Code 8413.30.90.90 applies to pumps within the context of internal combustion engines that do not primarily function as fuel, lubricant, or coolant delivery devices. Examples might include pumps for engine-related fluids other than fuel, lubricant, or coolant, or pumps designed for specialized internal engine systems not covered by the primary categories.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification within this HTS code relies on a careful examination of the pump's intended use and its functional relationship to the internal combustion piston engine, ensuring it does not fit the more narrowly defined sibling classifications.
