Last updated: August 2026 dataBrass lamp parts (9405992000) and structural elements such as cast-iron and aluminum lampposts and bases (9405994010 and 9405994020) sit alongside a broad residual line for other lamp and lighting-fitting parts, making this heading a frequent classification destination for components that don't fit neatly into glass or plastic categories. China is the leading supplier, with Mexico and Canada also prominent; the heading's breadth means Section 301 exposure on Chinese-origin goods is a recurring cost consideration for lighting OEMs and distributors. Aluminum lamppost bases in particular serve municipal street-lighting and commercial outdoor-lighting projects, where Buy America provisions in federally funded infrastructure contracts may impose domestic-content requirements independent of import classification.

Yes. Projects receiving federal infrastructure or transportation funding may be subject to Buy America or Buy American Act requirements, which mandate domestic iron and steel or manufactured products regardless of the import classification. Importers and contractors should review the specific grant or contract terms and consult legal counsel, as these requirements operate separately from customs duty obligations.
Classification as a lamp part requires that the article be identifiable by shape, design, or commercial use as a component of a lamp or lighting fitting. Generic brass fittings or connectors with broad industrial applications are more likely to be classified under Chapter 74 (copper and articles thereof). The specificity of the article's design to lighting use is the determining factor.
