Last updated: April 2026 dataHand-cranked mills, manual juicers, pasta makers, and similar non-electric food-preparation devices weighing 10 kg or less — along with their base metal parts — are consolidated into a single 10-digit line (8210000000) under this heading. China is the dominant supplier, with France and Taiwan also notable sources, the latter two reflecting European and Asian specialty kitchenware manufacturing. Importers sourcing from China should factor Section 301 tariffs into cost modeling.

Heading 8210 is limited to hand-operated (non-electric) mechanical appliances. Once a food-preparation device incorporates an electric motor, it moves to Chapter 85 (typically heading 8509 for household appliances). The absence of any electrical drive mechanism is the threshold criterion, and product specifications or technical drawings should confirm this at entry.
Base metal parts specifically designed for hand-operated mechanical food-preparation appliances are expressly included within heading 8210 and share the single 10-digit line 8210000000. Parts made of other materials, or parts that are more specifically provided for elsewhere in the tariff schedule, may be classified differently — a determination that should be reviewed with a licensed customs broker.
