Dear Ms. Hagen:

In your letter dated February 18, 1999, on behalf of Nicolet, Mattson & Cahn Instruments, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The polystyrene film in a cardboard holder is used as a calibration device to calibrate spectrophotometers and spectrometers. The importation will consist of the polystyrene film inserted in a cardboard holder, and an instruction booklet. The polystyrene film in the cardboard holder measures approximately 4 inches by 2 inches.

The applicable subheading for the calibration film in the cardboard holder will be 9027.90.5430, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for instruments and apparatus for physical or chemical analysis; parts and accessories thereof; of electrical instruments and apparatus; of instruments and apparatus of subheading 9027.20, 9027.30, 9027.40, 9027.50 or 9027.80; of articles of subheading 9027.30.40. The rate of duty will be free.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
