RE: The tariff classification of a "Magic Pile" from Japan.
Dear Mr. Farias:
In your letter dated February 4, 1992, you requested a
tariff classification ruling.
The sample submitted is a "Magic Pile". It is composed of
nylon brush fabric and measures approximately 23 1/8 inches long
by 9 3/4 inches wide. Sewn lengthwise, on one side, is a strip
similar to the VELCRO brand loop fastener. The article is used
as a protective tool for the connectors and the wiring of the
harnesses that are pulled through the firewall of an automobile
body. It is removed from the harness and used again.
The applicable subheading for the "Magic Pile" will be
6307.90.9480, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other made up articles...Other: Other:
Other, other. The rate of duty will be 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
