About this HS Code
HS Code 8205 encompasses hand tools including hammers, chisels, screwdrivers, planes, pliers, and similar tools not included in other classifications. This comprehensive hand tool category includes implements for various trades and general use. Products range from basic household hammers to specialized professional-grade tools for specific trades. Manufacturing processes include forging, casting, machining, heat treatment, and various handle attachment and finishing operations to provide appropriate durability and ergonomics. Technical specifications focus on hardness, impact resistance, edge retention for cutting tools, and appropriate ergonomics for intended use patterns. Unlike power tools (HS 8467), these manual implements offer advantages in simplicity, reliability, precision control, and use in locations without power access. This division represents both everyday consumer tools and specialized professional implements designed for specific trades including carpentry, metalworking, masonry, and general maintenance, providing the fundamental implements that enable direct human manipulation of materials for construction, repair, and fabrication activities.
