Analysis
HTS 8406.90.75 covers other: other under heading 8406 (steam turbines and other vapor turbines, and parts thereof).
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.
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 5%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 8406.90.45 (of steam turbines: other), at 5%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 5 percentage points.
Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 61% of the 823 tariff lines in chapter 84. 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 27.5% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 27.5% duty.
