9405.91.60.80 - Other

This HTS category, 9405.91.60.80, is designated for "Other" parts of luminaires and lighting fittings, specifically those made of glass, which are not elsewhere specified within the subheadings of 9405.91.60. It encompasses a broad range of glass components used in the construction or function of lighting fixtures that do not fit into more specific glass part classifications.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 9405.91.60.40 ("Prisms and other glass articles of a kind used in chandeliers and wall brackets, and articles thereof"), is crucial. While the sibling category focuses on specific types of glass articles like prisms and those explicitly designed for chandeliers and wall brackets, this "Other" category captures any remaining glass parts used in a wider array of lighting fittings. This includes, but is not limited to, glass diffusers, lenses, globes, or decorative glass elements that are not prisms or specifically for the aforementioned fixture types.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification within 9405.91.60.80 relies on the definitive exclusion of the item from more precisely defined glass components for lighting fittings. Therefore, careful examination of the physical characteristics and intended use of the glass part is essential to ensure it is correctly classified under this residual "Other" provision.
