8510.20 - Hair clippers:

HTS Code 8510.20 specifically encompasses hair clippers, which are electrical appliances designed for cutting hair. These devices are distinguished from other products within heading 8510 by their primary function of clipping or trimming hair, as opposed to shaving (8510.10) or the removal of hair through other means such as epilation or waxing (8510.30). The key characteristic is the mechanical cutting action achieved through reciprocating or rotating blades.

This classification is further delineated into subcategories based on the intended use of the hair clippers. The primary subdivision, 8510.20.10.00, covers hair clippers specifically manufactured for agricultural or horticultural purposes, such as trimming livestock or vegetation. All other hair clippers, including those intended for personal grooming of humans or pets, fall under the residual category of "Other," HTS code 8510.20.90.00. This distinction is crucial for accurate import and export declarations.
