Curtain track Hs Code

Curtain track harmonized system code

Product Overview Curtain tracks classified under HS Code 830241 are precision-engineered mechanical components designed to facilitate the smooth movement of curtains and draperies along a fixed path. These products typically consist of durable metal or high-grade polymer materials, with lengths varying from 0.5 meters up to 6 meters, and feature integrated gliders, rollers, or hooks to support curtain suspension and mobility. Processing levels include surface treatments such as anodizing, galvanization, or powder coating to enhance corrosion resistance and wear durability. HS Code 830241 encompasses curtain track systems primarily composed of base metal, including aluminum and steel, and may incorporate plastic elements for gliding mechanisms. Commercially, these curtain tracks serve critical roles in food service environments (e.g., hygiene partitions), retail displays, and industrial processing areas requiring controlled enclosures or partitions. Their robust construction and modular design provide competitive advantages in installation efficiency, load-bearing capacity, and longevity, positioning them as essential components in both commercial and industrial sectors. HS Code Classification & Trade Specifications The HS Code 830241 is structured as follows: Chapter 83 (Miscellaneous Articles of Base Metal), Heading 8302 (Base metal mountings, fittings and similar articles suitable for furniture, doors, staircases, windows, blinds, coachwork), and Subheading 830241 specifically identifying curtain tracks of base metal. This classification is justified by the curtain track’s functional role as a metallic fitting designed for window treatment applications, aligning with international customs nomenclature. Trade practitioners should note that curtain tracks under this code are commonly packaged in protective cartons with anti-corrosion wrapping or desiccants to prevent oxidation during transit. Standard shipping units range from 10 to 50 pieces per carton, with weight and dimension declarations adhering to WTO guidelines for accurate tariff and duty assessment. Quality standards typically reference ISO 9001 certified manufacturing processes, with compliance to ASTM B221 for aluminum extrusions or equivalent steel standards. Proper documentation must include detailed product specifications, material certifications, and conformity declarations to facilitate customs clearance and ensure alignment with global trade compliance protocols.

Curtain track Chapter Note

1.- For the purposes of this Chapter, parts of base metal are to be classified with their parent articles. However, articles of iron or steel of heading 73.12, 73.15, 73.17, 73.18 or 73.20, or similar articles of other base metal (Chapters 74 to 76 and 78 to 81) are not to be taken as parts of articles of this Chapter. 2.- For the purposes of heading 83.02, the word “castors” means those having a diameter (including, where appropriate, tyres) not exceeding 75 mm, or those having a diameter (including, where appropriate, tyres) exceeding 75 mm provided that the width of the wheel or tyre fitted thereto is less than 30 mm.
