HS Code 8451.90 – Machinery; parts, of the machinery of heading no. 8451
HS code 8451.90 is the 6-digit subheading for machinery, parts, of the machinery of heading no. 8451. It is used for heating elements for presses, rollers for dyeing machines, cutting blades for fabric cutters, nozzles for washing machines and control panels for finishing lines.
What HS 8451.90 covers
This HS code covers parts and accessories specifically designed for the industrial textile machinery classified under heading 8451. This includes components for machines used in ironing, washing, bleaching, dyeing, reeling, cutting, finishing, and coating textiles. The international trade in these parts is crucial for the maintenance, repair, and upgrading of existing textile production lines worldwide, ensuring operational continuity and efficiency. Importers are typically textile factories, maintenance workshops, and machinery distributors who need to service and repair their equipment. Exporters are original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and specialized parts suppliers. Key considerations in this trade include precision engineering, material durability, compatibility with specific machine models, and the rapid availability of parts to minimize costly production downtime.

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).
