Last updated: July 2026 dataChain saw blades classified here are subdivided by alloy content of the cutting parts: lines 8202403000 cover blades whose cutting portions contain specified levels of chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, or vanadium, while 8202406030 and 8202406060 distinguish continuous-length stock from cut-to-size pieces. Switzerland leads US imports under this heading, followed by Canada and Sweden, reflecting the dominance of precision European and North American tooling manufacturers in the professional forestry and arborist supply chains. Importers should verify alloy composition documentation carefully, as misclassification between the alloy and non-alloy lines can affect duty liability.
