About heading 8480

Heading 8480 covers molding boxes for metal foundry; mold bases; molding patterns; molds for metal (other than ingot molds), metal carbides, glass, mineral materials, rubber or plastics. It splits into 2 six-digit subheadings and 5 US tariff lines, 2 of which are duty-free under the general rate.

Headings are the four-digit level of the Harmonized System — the layer that is identical across all 160-plus countries that use it. The six-digit subheading is also international; the last two digits of each code here are US-specific and do not carry across to another country's tariff.
