RE: The tariff classification of gratings and ladder systems
from Canada.
Dear Mr. Pepi:
In your letter dated April 28, 1995, on behalf of
Precisioneering Ltd., you requested a tariff classification
ruling.
The grating and ladder systems are both composed of
fiberglass reinforced plastics. The grating is used to construct
industrial flooring. The ladder systems include the components
necessary to construct complete ladder systems with the necessary
ladder segments, safety cages, pass throughs and landings.
The applicable tariff provision for the fiberglass
reinforced plastics grating will be 3925.90.0000, Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States Annotated (HTSUSA), which
provides for builders' ware of plastics, not elsewhere specified
or included, other. The general rate of duty will be 5.3 percent
ad valorem.
The applicable tariff provision for the fiberglass
reinforced plastics ladder systems will be 3926.90.9890, HTSUSA,
which provides for other articles of plastics, other. The
general rate of duty will be 5.3 percent ad valorem.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177
of the Customs Regulations (19 CFR 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
