Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 842519 when importing or exporting non-electric pulley tackle and hoists. This includes items like manual winches used for lifting heavy loads on construction sites or in warehouses.
This code specifically covers pulley tackle and hoists that are not powered by electric motors, distinguishing them from electric hoists classified under different codes. For instance, if you have a hand-operated hoist, you would use this code, while an electric hoist would fall under a different classification.
In contrast, HS-6 842511 covers powered hoists, which are designed to lift loads using an electric motor. If your equipment relies on human effort rather than electricity, 842519 is the correct choice.
When considering this code, think about your product's design and functionality. If it’s a mechanical device that lifts or lowers loads without electrical power, it likely fits here.
