9902.16.41 - Parts of signaling equipment, each with pressed sealing on the flanges (provided for in subheading 8512.90.20)

This HTS code, 9902.16.41, specifically covers parts intended for signaling equipment. The defining characteristic of these parts is the presence of a pressed seal on their flanges. This particular specification is crucial for correct classification, as it differentiates these parts from other components used in signaling devices. The classification is provided for in subheading 8512.90.20, indicating that these are supplementary provisions for parts of electrical signaling apparatus.

As a leaf node within Chapter 99, which deals with temporary legislation and modifications, this code does not have further subdivisions. Its purpose is to track specific temporary classifications or additional import restrictions for these particular signaling equipment parts. Therefore, its distinctiveness lies in its unique combination of being a component of signaling equipment *and* possessing the specified pressed sealing feature, as well as its temporary nature under Chapter 99. This contrasts with broader categories within the HTS that might cover general machinery parts or signaling devices themselves, without such specific physical attributes or temporary tariff treatment.
