Last updated: August 2026 dataCircular saws, reciprocating saws, and jigsaws with integrated electric motors are the primary articles in this heading, serving residential construction, remodeling, and light industrial fabrication markets. Like other power hand tools, imports sourced from China carry Section 301 tariff exposure, prompting many US importers to evaluate alternative manufacturing bases in Southeast Asia. Blade guards, blade-change mechanisms, and other safety features are integral to the tool and classify with it; replacement blades, however, are typically classified under a separate heading.

No. Replacement blades are classified separately — typically under headings for cutting tools or blades — rather than with the electromechanical saw. Only blades shipped as an original part of the tool set may be classified with the saw under the principal-article rule.
Pneumatic and hydraulic hand saws do not qualify under this heading because they lack a self-contained electric motor. Those tools are classified under separate SITC or HTS headings for pneumatic or hydraulically powered hand tools, which may carry different duty treatment.
