8510.20.10.00 - Hair clippers to be used for agricultural or horticultural purposes

This HTS category, 8510.20.10.00, specifically encompasses hair clippers that are designed and intended for use in agricultural or horticultural applications. This includes clippers used for grooming livestock, such as sheep, cattle, or horses, as well as any specialized clippers utilized in agricultural or horticultural settings for trimming or shaping plants or other organic materials where such a function is applicable. The key defining characteristic for this sub-heading is the intended end-use in a professional agricultural or horticultural environment, differentiating it from general-purpose human hair clippers.

At this level of the HTS, 8510.20.10.00 is distinguished from its sibling category, 8510.20.90.00, which covers "Other" hair clippers. While this sibling category would capture hair clippers not specifically designated for agricultural or horticultural purposes, such as those intended for personal grooming of humans, the current sub-heading is narrowly defined by its specialized agricultural or horticultural function.

As a leaf node, this category has no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 8510.20.10.00 hinges solely on confirming that the hair clipper is equipped with a self-contained electric motor and is demonstrably intended for use within the agricultural or horticultural sectors, based on its design, marketing, or end-user documentation.
