8506.80.00.10 - Button and coin cell batteries 🖩

This HTS classification, 8506.80.00.10, specifically covers button and coin cell batteries. These are primary cells and primary batteries characterized by their small, cylindrical or flat, disc-like shape, designed for low-power applications. Examples include batteries commonly found in watches, calculators, key fobs, and small electronic devices. Their compact form factor and specific energy density make them distinct from larger primary battery types.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 8506.80.00.90, which covers all other primary cells and primary batteries not falling under the specific definition of button or coin cells. While both fall under the broader heading of "Other primary cells and primary batteries," 8506.80.00.10 provides a more granular classification for these specific, small-format power sources.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this classification. Classification at this level is determined by the physical form factor of the primary cell or battery, specifically identifying it as a button or coin cell type. If a primary cell or battery does not fit the description of a button or coin cell, it would be classified under the residual category 8506.80.00.90.
