Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 848291 when importing or exporting parts for ball or roller bearings, specifically balls, needles, and rollers. For example, if you're shipping a box of steel balls used in bearing assemblies, this is the correct code to use.

This code falls under the broader category of 8482, which focuses on ball or roller bearings. It’s important to distinguish this from 848290, which covers other bearing parts not specified here, such as housings or cages.

The 848291 code specifically includes components like bearing balls and needle rollers, essential for the smooth operation of machinery. If your shipment consists of these items, ensure you classify them correctly to avoid delays.

When dealing with bearing parts, knowing the specific type is crucial. For instance, if you have a shipment of needle bearings, you would still use 848291, but if you were shipping complete bearings, you would use a different code.
