U.S. imports of Retail Tool Sets (Saws, Files, Drills, and Similar) (SITC 69570) totaled $4.9M in August 2026, imported from 29 countries.
Importers of Retail Tool Sets (Saws, Files, Drills, and Similar) paid $512K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 10.71% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataPackaged for retail sale, these sets combine two or more hand tools — such as saws, files, wrenches, and drills — into a single consumer-facing unit, a packaging configuration that can shift classification away from the individual tool headings into this combined-set category. The retail-packaging requirement is a critical classification trigger: sets sold in bulk or industrial packaging may revert to individual tool classifications. Section 301 tariff exposure is a live concern for sets sourced from major Asian manufacturing hubs, making origin documentation and first-sale valuation strategies relevant for importers.

The set must contain two or more qualifying tools (saws, files, wrenches, drills, etc.) and be packaged specifically for retail sale — meaning the packaging is designed for direct sale to the end consumer without repackaging. Industrial or bulk-packed assortments generally do not qualify and are classified by their individual components.
When the set meets the retail-packaging criteria for this SITC heading, it is classified as a unit under the combined-set category rather than split across individual tool headings. However, if any component does not qualify as a hand tool under the covered subgroups, the entire set's classification should be reviewed with a customs broker.
