Miranda-Hernandez Frederick Goldman, Inc. 55 Hartz Way Secaucus NJ 07094 RE: The tariff classification of twelve rings. Dear Mr. Miranda-Hernandez: In your letter dated May 15, 2019, you requested the tariff classification of 12 rings. You provided pictures and descriptions with the request and additional details in a follow up telephonic communication and email on May 30, 2019. Although it is CBP policy to allow a maximum of five items on any one binding ruling requests, we feel this binding ruling request for 12 items to be in keeping with that policy, since the items can be easily divided into 3 groups based on their composition, as follows: Material: Carbon Fiber CI-6074-CF6 (D38762), 3mm Chaotic Carbon Fiber Insert, Style No. 6078, Tmk, KCM:CF, KCM Wgt: 3.4DWT CI-6075-CF6 (D38938), 3mm Twill Carbon Fiber Insert, Style No. 6075, Tmk, KCM:CF, KCM Wgt: 3.4DWT CI-6075-CF8 (D38938), 5mm Twill Carbon Fiber Insert, Style No. 6075, Tmk, KCM:CF, KCM Wgt: 5.55DWT CI-6074-CF8 (D38762), 5mm Chaotic Carbon Fiber Insert, Style No. 6074, Tmk, KCM:CF, KCM Wgt: 5.55DWT Material: Titanium 55% / 45% Zirconium CI-6066-TI8, 5mm BTI Insert, Flat Profile with CNC Carved Pattern CI-6067-TI8, 5mm BTI Insert, Flat Profile with CNC Carved Pattern CI-6063-TI6, 3mm BTI Insert, Flat Profile with CNC Engraved Swirl Pattern CI-6066-TI6, 3mm BTI Insert, Flat Profile with CNC Carved Pattern CI-6067-TI6, 3mm BTI Insert, Flat Profile with CNC Carved Pattern CI-6063-TI8, 5mm BTI Insert, Flat Profile with CNC Engraved Swirl Pattern Material: Wood CI-6083-WD8, 5mm, Flat Profile, wood insert CI-6083-WD6, 3mm, Flat Profile, wood insert Items number 1 – 4, above, are black rings made of carbon fiber with an outer surface that is smooth (1 and 4) or tire-like (2 and 3).
