8467.21.00.70 - Other, including hammer drills

This category, HTS Code 8467.21.00.70, specifically covers drills that are equipped with a self-contained electric motor and are designed for hand-held operation. This includes a broad range of electric drills, with a particular emphasis on hammer drills, which are characterized by their percussive action in addition to their rotational function, making them suitable for drilling into harder materials like concrete and masonry. The key defining feature is the integrated electric motor powering the drilling mechanism.

This classification distinguishes itself from other hand-held tools within HTS 8467 by its primary function as a drill and the presence of a self-contained electric motor. Unlike pneumatic or hydraulic drills covered elsewhere in the heading, or hand-powered tools, these are powered by electricity. It also differs from the sibling category "Rotary" drills by encompassing not only pure rotary action but also those with hammer functions.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions under this specific code. Classification under this code is determined by the tool being a hand-held drill with an integrated electric motor, explicitly including those with a hammer function. The "Other" designation within the description further signifies that this code captures the remaining types of electric drills not otherwise specified in more granular subheadings.
