HS-6 · Subheading
848120
Valves; for oleohydraulic or pneumatic transmissions
Heading 8481 — Taps, cocks, valves and similar appliances for pipes, boiler shells, tanks, vats or the like, including pressure-reducing valves and thermostatically controlled valves
Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 848120 when importing or exporting valves specifically designed for oleohydraulic or pneumatic transmission systems. For instance, a shipment of hydraulic control valves used in construction machinery would fall under this code.
This code is distinct from HS-6 848130, which covers valves for other applications, such as those used in general plumbing. If your product is specifically for hydraulic or pneumatic use, 848120 is the correct choice.
The 848120 subheading includes various types of valves that control the flow of fluids under pressure in hydraulic systems. These valves are essential in machinery where precise control of fluid dynamics is required.
Common examples include solenoid valves, pressure relief valves, and directional control valves, often found in industrial equipment, automotive systems, and manufacturing machinery.
