8540.11.24.01 - Having a video display diagonal not exceeding 34.29 cm 🖩

This HTS classification pertains to color cathode-ray television picture tubes and video monitor cathode-ray tubes that are specifically designed for non-high definition and non-projection applications. A key defining characteristic of tubes classified under this heading is their video display diagonal, which must not exceed 35.56 cm. This criterion ensures that these are relatively smaller screen sizes, typically found in older television sets or monitors, distinct from larger or high-definition displays.

The primary distinction for this subcategory, 8540.11.24.01, lies in its precise measurement of the video display diagonal: not exceeding 34.29 cm. This is a narrower range than the parent category (not exceeding 35.56 cm), indicating a further refinement in size classification. Sibling categories at this level, such as 8540.11.28.01, would encompass other cathode-ray tubes that do not meet the specific size constraint of this subcategory, or potentially other defining characteristics not explicitly detailed here.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is definitive for color cathode-ray tubes meeting all the preceding criteria, particularly the maximum diagonal measurement of 34.29 cm, and not fitting into any other more specific or broader residual categories. The classification emphasizes the physical dimensions of the display screen as the critical factor for differentiation.
