Analysis
HTS 8510.10.00 covers shavers, hair clippers and hair-removing appliances, with self-contained electric motor; parts thereof: shavers under heading 8510 (shavers, hair clippers and hair-removing appliances, with self-contained electric motor…).
Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 4.2%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 8510.90.55 (parts: other), at 4.2%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 4.2 percentage points.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 35% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 35% duty.
Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 58% of the 624 tariff lines in chapter 85. 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 335210 (Small Electrical Appliance Manufacturing), an industry of 178 US establishments employing 8,857 people. That is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
