851590

Welding, brazing or soldering machines; parts of the machines of heading no. 8515

Heading 8515Electric (electrically heated gas) soldering, brazing, welding machines and apparatus, capable or not of cutting, electric machines and apparatus for hot spraying of metals or sintered carbides

Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 851590 when importing or exporting parts for welding, brazing, or soldering machines. For instance, if you're shipping a replacement nozzle for an electric soldering iron, this is the code to use.

This code specifically covers parts of welding and soldering machines under the 8515 heading. It’s distinct from HS-6 851580, which pertains to electric machines for hot spraying of metals, focusing instead on components that assist in joining materials.

When classifying items, consider the function and design. For example, if you have a soldering machine that also cuts, it might still fall under this code if it primarily serves as a soldering apparatus.

Parts classified under this code can include tips, nozzles, and electrodes. Ensure that the product description on your invoice clearly identifies the item to avoid misclassification.
