Individual Can (Silver)

An Individual Can, specifically a silver-colored can, typically refers to a small, portable aerosol container designed to hold and dispense compressed air for various cleaning and maintenance purposes. While the color doesn't fundamentally alter its function, silver is a common finish for aesthetic and branding reasons.

Material:

• Can Body: Primarily constructed from aluminum or tinplate steel. Aluminum is favored for its lightweight nature and resistance to corrosion.
• Propellant: Historically, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were used, but modern cans employ alternative propellants like hydrocarbons (e.g., butane, propane, isobutane) or compressed gases like nitrogen. The propellant is essential for creating the pressure that forces the contents out.
• Nozzle/Actuator: Usually made of plastic (polypropylene or polyethylene) and designed to control the airflow and spray pattern.

Purpose:

The primary purpose of an individual can is to deliver a focused blast of compressed air. This air is not for breathing; it is a cleaning and maintenance tool.

Function:

The can operates on the principle of pressurized gas displacement. The propellant creates high pressure inside the can. When the actuator is pressed, it opens a valve, allowing the pressurized air to escape, carrying with it any particulate matter or dust present.

Usage Scenarios:

• Electronics Cleaning: Removing dust and debris from keyboards, computer components, camera lenses, and other sensitive electronic devices. This is the most common application.
• Office Equipment Maintenance: Cleaning printers, scanners, and fax machines.
• Automotive Cleaning: Cleaning tight spaces and removing dust from car interiors and engine compartments (with caution).
• Household Cleaning: Cleaning hard-to-reach areas, removing dust from collectibles, or blowing dust from small mechanisms.
• DIY Projects & Hobbies: Cleaning and maintaining tools, removing residue from craft projects, or applying certain adhesives or lubricants (with appropriate nozzle attachments).

Common Types/Variations:

• Standard Cans: Typically 300-400ml in volume, with a standard nozzle for general-purpose cleaning.
• Precision Cans: Feature a thin nozzle and/or extension tube for targeted cleaning in tight spaces. Often used for electronics.
• Dust Remover Cans: Specifically marketed for removing dust, often with a slightly different nozzle design.
• Cans with Straws/Extension Tubes: Include accessories for reaching difficult areas.
• Cans with Multiple Nozzles: Offer different spray patterns (e.g., focused jet, wide spray) for various applications.
• Environmentally Friendly Cans: Utilizing propellants with lower global warming potential.

Safety Precautions:

• Do not inhale the contents. The propellant is harmful.
• Do not point the nozzle at eyes or skin.
• Use in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. The contents are flammable.
• Do not puncture or incinerate the can.
• Hold the can upright during use. Tilting the can may result in liquid propellant discharge.

Based on the provided information, the declared goods, “individual can (silver)”, can be classified under the following HS codes:

• 7106100000: This HS code covers Silver (including silver plated with gold or platinum), unwrought or in semimanufactured forms, or in powder form: Powder. This could apply if the can is in powder form. The total tax rate is 55.0%, comprising a base tariff of 0.0%, an additional tariff of 25.0%, and a further additional tariff of 30.0% effective after April 2, 2025.
• 7612901030: This HS code covers Aluminum casks, drums, cans, boxes and similar containers (including rigid or collapsible tubular containers), for any material (other than compressed or liquefied gas), of a capacity not exceeding 300 liters, whether or not lined or heat insulated, but not fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment: Other: Of a capacity not exceeding 20 liters Cans of a capacity not exceeding 355 ml. This applies if the can is made of aluminum and has a capacity of 355 ml or less. The total tax rate is 60.7%, consisting of a base tariff of 5.7%, an additional tariff of 25.0%, and a further additional tariff of 30.0% effective after April 2, 2025.
• 7612901060: This HS code covers Aluminum casks, drums, cans, boxes and similar containers (including rigid or collapsible tubular containers), for any material (other than compressed or liquefied gas), of a capacity not exceeding 300 liters, whether or not lined or heat insulated, but not fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment: Other: Of a capacity not exceeding 20 liters Cans of a capacity exceeding 355 ml but less than 3.8 liters. This applies if the can is made of aluminum and has a capacity between 355 ml and 3.8 liters. The total tax rate is 60.7%, consisting of a base tariff of 5.7%, an additional tariff of 25.0%, and a further additional tariff of 30.0% effective after April 2, 2025.

HS Code Breakdown:
