HS code · 6-digit subheading
HS Code 8448.39 – Machines; parts and accessories of machines or auxiliary machinery of heading no. 8445, n.e.c. in item no. 8448.3
HS code 8448.39 is the 6-digit subheading for machines, parts and accessories of machines or auxiliary machinery of heading no. 8445, n.e.c. in item no. 8448.3. It is used for winding machine drums, yarn guides, tension discs, clearer blades and drafting rollers (other than drawing rollers).
What HS 8448.39 covers
This HS code serves as a residual category for parts and accessories of machines under heading 8445, which covers machines for preparing textile fibers, spinning, doubling, or twisting textile materials, and winding or reeling machines. It includes all parts not specifically classified under 844831 (card clothing), 844832 (other fiber preparation parts), or 844833 (spindles, rings, travellers). This broad category encompasses a wide array of components essential for the maintenance, repair, and upgrade of spinning and winding machinery. The trade is crucial for textile mills globally, ensuring the continuous operation of their yarn production lines. Exporters are typically specialized manufacturers of textile machinery components, often found in countries with advanced industrial capabilities like Germany, Japan, Italy, and China. Importers are textile manufacturers worldwide, particularly in major textile-producing regions like Asia, who rely on these parts to keep their extensive machinery parks running efficiently. The market is influenced by technological advancements in spinning and winding and the global demand for textile yarns.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
