9620.00.50.00 - Of plastics

This HTS category, 9620.00.50.00, specifically covers monopods, bipods, tripods, and similar articles that are primarily manufactured from plastics. These items are designed to provide stability and support for various equipment, such as cameras, firearms, or other portable devices, and are distinguished by their construction material.

This classification differs from its siblings based on the material composition of the article. For example, articles made of wood fall under 9620.00.55.00, those made of graphite or other carbon under 9620.00.60.00, and those made of iron or steel, or aluminum, are classified under 9620.00.65.00 and 9620.00.70.00, respectively. Therefore, to correctly classify an article within this heading, the predominant material of its construction is the key determinant.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Classification decisions at this level depend solely on whether the article in question is a monopod, bipod, tripod, or a similar supporting device, and whether its constituent material is predominantly plastic. Examples include plastic camera tripods, portable plastic shooting sticks, and plastic camera monopods.
