RE: The tariff classification of an airless spray gun from
Korea.
Dear Mr. Smith:
In an undated letter you requested a tariff classification
ruling. You submitted descriptive literature with your request.
The spray gun is 180 mm in height, 130 mm in length and 57
mm in width. It weighs .65 kg and has a recommended working
pressure of 300 Kgf/cm2. The airless spray gun works with a so-
called airless pump which produces pressures sufficient to spray
a variety of materials, including paint, through the spray gun.
The applicable subheading for the airless spray pump will be
8424.20.9000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for spray guns and similar appliances. The
rate of duty will be 3.7 percent ad valorem.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
