Overview
This HTS subheading, 9403.99.10.40, specifically classifies parts of furniture that are constructed from metal. These components are intended for use with furniture falling under heading 9403, with a particular emphasis on furniture designed for motor vehicles. The key identifying characteristic for classification within this code is the material composition of the part being exclusively or predominantly metal.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 9403.99.10.50, which covers parts made of textile material, specifically when those textiles are cut to shape. Another sibling, 9403.99.10.85, encompasses all other parts not classified under the preceding subcategories. Therefore, this subheading is reserved solely for metal parts used in furniture, excluding those made from or primarily composed of textiles.
As this subheading represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Classification into 9403.99.10.40 is final based on the metal composition and the intended application of the part with furniture for motor vehicles. Examples of goods falling here include metal frames, brackets, or supports specifically manufactured for use in car seats, dashboards, or other interior furniture components of vehicles.
