8467.29.00.35 - Other

This classification, HTS Code 8467.29.00.35, specifically covers "Other" power-operated tools for working in the hand, featuring a self-contained electric motor, that are not grinders, polishers, or sanders. These are tools that are designed to be handheld and powered by an integrated electric motor, but do not fit into the more specific categories of drills, saws, grinders, polishers, or sanders. Examples might include electric screwdrivers, electric wrenches, electric nutrunners, or other handheld electric tools that perform distinct functions not covered by the more specialized subheadings.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 8467.29.00.25, which is dedicated to belt sanders. While both are handheld electric tools, this "Other" category encompasses a broader range of power tools whose primary function is not sanding with a belt mechanism. The key differentiator lies in the specific mechanical action and intended use of the tool, ensuring that only those tools not explicitly defined elsewhere are classified here.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under HTS Code 8467.29.00.35. Therefore, careful consideration of the tool's primary function, its handheld nature, and the presence of a self-contained electric motor is paramount for accurate classification. If a tool does not clearly fall into a more specific category within the 8467.29.00.XX series, it should be assessed against the general definition of this "Other" classification.
