Last updated: April 2026 dataOpen glass envelopes and parts not elsewhere specified — covering applications outside electric lighting and cathode-ray tubes, such as vacuum tubes, specialty scientific instruments, and niche electronic components — are consolidated under a single 10-digit line (7011900000). China and Germany are the leading US import sources, with Canada and Japan also present, reflecting both high-volume commodity supply and precision specialty glass manufacturing. The breadth of this residual category means classification disputes can arise when a glass envelope could plausibly fit a more specific heading; a binding ruling from CBP is advisable for novel or ambiguous products.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
This residual heading captures open glass envelopes and parts not specifically provided for under the electric lighting (701110) or cathode-ray tube (701120) subheadings. Common examples include glass envelopes for vacuum tubes used in audio amplifiers, specialty gas discharge tubes, and certain scientific or laboratory instrument components. The key requirement is that the glass envelope be open and without fittings.
A binding ruling is advisable when a glass envelope could reasonably be argued to fall under a more specific heading (such as 701110 for lighting or 701120 for CRTs) or when the product is a novel design not clearly described in existing tariff notes. Given that 701190 is a catch-all, CBP may challenge classification if a more specific provision exists, making advance certainty valuable for high-volume shipments.
