	The applicable tariff provision for the snap hooks will be 3926.90.9890, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States Annotated (HTSUSA), which provides for other articles of plastics, other.  The general rate of duty will be 5.3 percent ad valorem.      

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