8467.29.00.90 - Other

This HTS classification, 8467.29.00.90, encompasses "Other" tools for working in the hand that are equipped with a self-contained electric motor, excluding those specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings. This residual category is crucial for ensuring complete classification of all electric hand tools under heading 8467 that do not fit into more precise groupings. The primary defining characteristic is the presence of an integrated electric motor powering the tool's operation, coupled with its design for hand-held use.

To correctly classify an item within 8467.29.00.90, it is essential to first consider the more specific sibling categories. For instance, if the tool is a grinder, polisher, sander, screwdriver, nut-runner, impact wrench, router, planer, or a grass and weed trimmer/edger, it would be classified under those respective subheadings. This "Other" category serves as a fallback for electric hand-powered tools that do not align with these explicitly defined types, such as certain types of electric chisels, engraving tools, or portable drills not fitting other descriptions.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, accurate classification hinges on a thorough examination of the tool's specific function, design, and the exclusions of the preceding subheadings within 8467.29. The intention is to capture all remaining electric hand-held tools that are powered by their own integral motor, provided they are not otherwise specified.
