Overview
This HTS subcategory, 8479.90.75.00, specifically designates "Cabinets or cases" that are components or parts of trash compactors. These are the external enclosures or housing units designed to contain and protect the internal mechanisms of the compactor. They are typically fabricated from durable materials such as metal or heavy-duty plastics, intended to withstand the operational forces and the nature of the waste being compacted.
This classification is distinguished from its siblings by its focus on the structural housing. For instance, it differs from frame assemblies (8479.90.45.00) which refer to the underlying structural support systems, and ram assemblies (8479.90.55.00) which are the parts directly responsible for the compaction action. Similarly, container assemblies (8479.90.65.00) refer to the specific receptacle or bin that holds the waste before and during compaction. The "cabinets or cases" are the outer shell that encloses these components, providing a finished and protective exterior.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 8479.90.75.00. Classification within this subcategory is determined by the item being an integral structural cabinet or case, intended for use with a trash compactor, and not fitting the more specific descriptions of the sibling categories mentioned above.
