No samples were supplied. You have supplied information concerning the Gasboy Meter-Registers 4860, 3460, and 4460. A liquid, typically gasoline, will flow through via two hose/pipe connectors.

The accuracy of the measurement is stated to be .5 % at full flow. We agree that the applicable subheading for these meter-registers will be 9028.20.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for liquid meters. The general rate of duty will be 16 cents each plus 2.5 percent ad valorem. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
