Anvils; portable forges; hand- or pedal-operated grinding wheels with frameworks; base metal parts thereof
Analysis
HTS 8205.90.10 covers anvils; portable forges; hand- or pedal-operated grinding wheels with frameworks; base metal parts thereof under heading 8205 (handtools (including glass cutters) not elsewhere specified or included; blow torches and…).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 7.2%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 8205.59.10 (pipe tools, and parts thereof), at 7.2%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 7.2 percentage points.
Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 41% of the 95 tariff lines in chapter 82. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 332111 (Iron and Steel Forging), an industry of 283 US establishments employing 17,126 people. That is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 6% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 6% duty.
