8480.50.00.90 - Other types

HTS code 8480.50.00.90 covers molds for glass that are not of the injection or compression types. This category encompasses a variety of molds designed for shaping molten glass into desired forms, excluding those that operate through the injection or compression of materials into a mold cavity. Examples include molds used for blowing glass, pressing glass, or casting glass, where the molten glass is shaped by gravity, blowing, or external pressure other than injection or compression.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling, 8480.50.00.10, which specifically covers injection or compression molds for glass. While both are molds for glass, the distinction lies in the method of material shaping. 8480.50.00.90 applies to molds that utilize alternative glass shaping techniques.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 8480.50.00.90 is determined by the specific design and operational method of the mold, provided it is intended for use with glass and does not fall under the injection or compression type.
