Casing for bicycle derailleur cables; and casing for cable or inner wire for caliper and cantilever brakes, whether or not cut to length
Analysis
HTS 3926.90.96 covers casing for bicycle derailleur cables; and casing for cable or inner wire for caliper and cantilever brakes, whether or not cut to length under heading 3926 (other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914).
This line's footnotes point to one additional provision in Chapter 99: 9903.90.08 (measures on products of Russia). Chapter 99 duties are added on top of the general rate for goods of the countries they name, and they change more often than the rest of the schedule, so check the current CBP guidance before you rely on a total.
Rates on the nearby lines range from duty-free to 6.5%. The costliest confusion would be with 3926.90.85 (fasteners, in clips suitable for use in a mechanical attaching device) at 6.5%, a difference of 6.5 points on the customs value.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 13% of the 236 tariff lines in chapter 39 that are also free. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 25% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 25% duty.
