9405.42.60.00 - Other

This category, HTS 9405.42.60.00, encompasses "Other" electric luminaires and lighting fittings specifically designed for light-emitting diode (LED) light sources, and constructed from base metal, excluding those explicitly classified under other specific base metal types. It serves as a residual category for LED luminaires made from base metals not otherwise specified.

Within the broader scope of electric luminaires made from base metals for LED light sources, this category is distinguished from its sibling, 9405.42.40.00, by its material composition. While 9405.42.40.00 specifically covers luminaires made of brass, 9405.42.60.00 applies to LED luminaires fabricated from other base metals such as steel, aluminum, iron, or alloys thereof, provided they are not classified elsewhere. This distinction hinges on the primary base metal used in the construction of the luminaire's housing and structural components.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification decision for goods falling under 9405.42.60.00 relies on a thorough assessment of their construction to ensure they are indeed made of base metal (other than brass), are designed for LED light sources, and are not specifically enumerated under preceding or succeeding headings within Chapter 94. Examples might include industrial LED floodlights with steel housings, architectural LED spotlights with aluminum frames, or decorative LED pendant lights with iron components, none of which are predominantly brass.
