HTS tariff line · chapter 82

Other handtools of a kind used in agriculture, horticulture or forestry, and parts thereof: other
Analysis
HTS 8201.90.60 covers other handtools of a kind used in agriculture, horticulture or forestry, and parts thereof: other under heading 8201 (handtools of the following kinds and base metal parts thereof: spades, shovels, mattocks…).
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 41% of the 95 tariff lines in chapter 82, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
The other lines in the same group are 8201.90.30 (grass shears, and parts thereof, 2¢ each + 5.1%) and 8201.90.40 (forks, and parts thereof, duty-free).
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 332216 (Saw Blade and Handtool Manufacturing), an industry of 775 US establishments employing 25,058 people. That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
All 2 neighbouring lines carry the same duty-free rate, so a borderline choice between them changes the statistics reported, not the duty paid.
Every edition we compared, from Jan 2023 to Oct 2026 (Rev. 22), shows the same general rate of Free.
