The articles in question are described as a motor mount arm, part number 026-34755-000, and a motor mount belly band, part number 026-34756-000. The arm and band are used to mount the motor in a motor/blower assembly. Technical drawings were submitted. Fans, including blowers, together with their motors are provided for in heading 8414, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Based on the information provided, the mount arm and band are classified as parts of blowers because the parts are used to complete the blower/motor assembly. The applicable subheading for the motor mount arm and band will be 8414.90.1080, HTSUS, which provides for other parts of fans (including blowers). The general rate of duty will be 4.7 percent ad valorem. Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change.
