Dear Mr. Wilson:
In your letter dated as of the date of receipt, September 9, 1992, you

The merchandise is key blanks for motorcycles. The blanks are of metal
with a plastic covering on the bow.
The applicable subheading for the key blanks will be 8301.70.0000,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
keys presented separately. The rate of duty will be 5.7 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

Customs officer handling the transaction.
Sincerely,
