HTS tariff line · chapter 87
8714.94.30
Drum brakes, caliper and cantilever bicycle brakes, and coaster brakes; parts thereof (including cable or inner wire therefor, fitted with fittings)
Analysis
HTS 8714.94.30 covers drum brakes, caliper and cantilever bicycle brakes, and coaster brakes; parts thereof (including cable or inner wire therefor, fitted with fittings) under heading 8714 (parts and accessories of vehicles of headings 8711 to 8713). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 5 ten-digit suffixes, reported in number of items.
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 10%. Compared with 8714.99.80 (other: other), which pays 10%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 10 percentage points.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 47% of the 212 tariff lines in chapter 87, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. 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 30% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 30% duty.
The ten-digit suffixes separate caliper and cantilever bicycle brakes, designed for single-speed bicycles and designed for three-speed bicycles. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.
