Overview
HTS Code 8424.30.90.00 encompasses "other" steam or sand blasting machines and similar jet projecting machines that are not specifically classified under the sibling category of sand blasting machines (8424.30.10.00). This includes a variety of machinery designed for high-pressure jetting of substances for cleaning, surface preparation, or material removal. Examples could include high-pressure water jetting equipment, dry ice blasting machines, or machines utilizing other abrasive or propelling media, provided they are not primarily designed for sand blasting.
The key distinction from 8424.30.10.00 lies in the primary blasting medium. While sand blasting machines specifically use sand as the abrasive, this category covers similar jet projecting machines that employ alternative media such as water, dry ice, or other granular materials for their cleaning or surface treatment functions. The core operational principle of using a high-velocity jet to impact a surface remains consistent across these related classifications.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories for this specific classification. Therefore, classification under 8424.30.90.00 relies on a thorough analysis of the machine's design, intended use, and the type of medium it projects, ensuring it does not fit the more specific definition of a sand blasting machine.
