Bearings; tapered roller bearings, including cone and tapered roller assemblies

Heading 8482Ball or roller bearings

Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 848220 when importing or exporting tapered roller bearings, which are essential components in machinery. For example, a shipment of tapered roller bearings used in automotive wheel hubs falls under this code.

This code specifically covers tapered roller bearings, which differ from other types of bearings like ball bearings (HS-6 848210). Tapered roller bearings are designed to handle both radial and axial loads, making them crucial for high-performance applications.

When classifying tapered roller bearings, consider whether they come as separate components or in assemblies. HS-6 848220 includes both individual bearings and complete cone and tapered roller assemblies, which are often used in heavy machinery and automotive applications.

If you’re dealing with bearings that do not have a tapered design, such as spherical or cylindrical roller bearings, you would need to look at different HS codes like 848230 or 848240. Understanding these distinctions is key to accurate classification.
