Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 846799 when importing or exporting parts for hand tools that do not fall under specific categories like chain saws or pneumatic tools. For example, this code covers replacement parts for manual screwdrivers or hand drills.

This classification is distinct from HS-6 846790, which includes parts specifically for chain saws and pneumatic tools. If your product is a hand tool component that isn’t designed for those uses, 846799 is likely the right choice.

The 846799 code encompasses various parts for hand tools, such as handles, grips, or attachments that enhance functionality without being tied to a specific tool type. Understanding these nuances can help avoid misclassification.

When dealing with hand tools, it’s crucial to differentiate between parts that are integral to the tool’s operation versus those that are merely accessories. For instance, a replacement blade for a hand saw would not fall under this code.
