Overview
This HTS subcategory, 8532.25.00.60, specifically classifies fixed electrical capacitors whose dielectric material is composed of paper or plastics, and which feature axial leads. Axial leads are characterized by extending from opposite ends of the capacitor's body, typically in a straight line, facilitating insertion through printed circuit boards. This designation focuses on the physical configuration of the component's terminals as a key distinguishing factor for classification.
It is important to differentiate this category from its siblings based on lead configuration. While all fall under fixed capacitors with paper or plastic dielectrics, 8532.25.00.60 is exclusively for those with axial leads. Sibling category 8532.25.00.70, for instance, covers capacitors with radial leads, where both leads emerge from the same side or face of the capacitor body. Category 8532.25.00.80 captures any other configurations of fixed capacitors with paper or plastic dielectrics not otherwise specified.
As a leaf node within the HTS classification system, 8532.25.00.60 represents a specific and definitive classification for these types of capacitors. Therefore, no further subcategories exist. The classification hinges on the precise combination of a paper or plastic dielectric and the presence of axial leads, ensuring accurate customs declarations for these electronic components.
