8420.99.10.00 - Of machines for processing textiles

This HTS classification covers parts and accessories specifically designed for machines used in the processing of textiles. These machines typically involve operations such as calendering, finishing, pressing, or embossing fabrics and other textile materials to impart specific textures, finishes, or properties. Examples of such parts could include specialized rollers, frames, drive mechanisms, or control components that are uniquely manufactured for textile processing machinery.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings, 8420.99.20.00 specifically pertains to parts for machines used in the production of paper or paperboard, while 8420.99.90.00 encompasses all other remaining parts not falling into the other specified categories within 8420.99. Therefore, classification here hinges on the primary intended function of the machinery to which the part belongs – textile processing.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 8420.99.10.00 is determined by confirming that the part in question is exclusively or principally intended for use with machinery engaged in textile processing, as opposed to paper making or other industrial applications covered by sibling codes or broader classifications. The specific design, material, and function of the part will be critical in making this determination.
