Manufacture of power-driven hand tools
What this code covers
Use this class for manufacture of power-driven hand tools when the main activity includes Manufacture of hand tools, with self-contained electric or non-electric motor or pneumatic drive and Circular or reciprocating saws. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Official NACE Rev. 2.1 labels and explanatory notes are imported from the source dataset. Plain-language explanations are shown separately so readers can compare interpretation with the source text.
No child codes; this is a class-level code.
