RE: The tariff classification of a ski base cover and a ski strap from Taiwan.

Dear Mr. Schluter:

In your letter dated April 18, 1990, on behalf of Robro Sports, Inc., Huntington Beach, California, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The samples submitted are a ski base cover and ski strap. The ski base cover is designed as a device to protect the base of a ski after hot waxing. It is composed of nonwoven nylon fabric with web straps attached to each side. The ski strap is used to secure the ski base cover when in use. the ski strap is composed of rubber and a 2 inch wide strip that is similar to the VELCRO brand fastener. The printed word "Briko" appears on both the ski base cover and the ski strap.

The applicable subheading for ski base cover and ski strap will be 6307.90.9550, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other made up articles...other, other. The rate of duty will be 7 percent ad valorem.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177). A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
