Heading 8477 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers machinery for working rubber or plastics or for the manufacture of products from these materials, not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter; parts thereof. It divides into 8 six-digit subheadings and 13 eight-digit tariff lines, with 28 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
2 of its 13 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (15%) and 11 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 3.1%. The median line pays 3.1%.
Its median rate of 3.1% sits at the 77th percentile of the headings in chapter 84.
