This model TL-19A computer housing measures approximately 22 inches in height, 16.5 inches in length and 8 inches in width. The case incorporates internal metal housings which will be used to store components such as disk drives, power supplies, and various populated PC boards.

The applicable subheading for the model TL-19A metal case housing will be 8473.30.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other parts and accessories of the machines of heading 8471 not incorporating a cathode ray tube. The rate of duty will be free.
