Overview
This HTS category, 8467.22.00.20, specifically covers **circular saws** that are designed for handheld operation and are powered by an integrated electric motor. These tools are characterized by their use of a rotating circular blade to perform cutting operations. The "circular" designation signifies the distinct cutting mechanism, differentiating them from other types of powered handheld saws.
This classification is distinguished from its siblings primarily by the cutting action. While all fall under "Saws" within handheld tools with self-contained electric motors, the sibling categories 8467.22.00.40 (Chain) and 8467.22.00.70 (Reciprocating and jig) refer to saws utilizing different cutting mechanisms: chain saws employ a continuous chain with cutting teeth, and reciprocating/jig saws use an oscillating blade. Category 8467.22.00.90 encompasses any other handheld electric saws not otherwise specified.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification within this code is on confirming the tool is indeed a handheld saw powered by a self-contained electric motor and utilizes a circular cutting blade. Examples within this category would include circular saws commonly used for woodworking, metal cutting, or masonry where portability and integrated power are essential.
