About HS Code 846310
This HS code specifically covers draw-benches, which are machine tools designed for cold-forming metal bars, tubes, profiles, or wire by pulling them through a die without removing material. This process significantly improves dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and mechanical properties of the metal. Draw-benches are vital for industries producing precision components, such as automotive, construction, and electrical wiring, where high-quality drawn products are essential. Exporters are typically specialized manufacturers in industrialized nations like Germany and Italy, and importers are those requiring high-quality, precisely formed metal products for their manufacturing processes.
Products Under This Code
Tube draw benches, bar draw benches, wire drawing machines, profile drawing machines, multi-strand draw benches, hydraulic draw benches, chain draw benches
Real World Examples
SMS Group draw benches, Danieli draw benches, Schumag draw benches, Wafios wire drawing machines
Common Misclassification
Can be confused with other metal forming machines under 8462 if the 'drawing' aspect isn't clearly understood, or with general metalworking machines under 846390 if not specifically identified as a draw-bench.
Products Classified Under 8463.10
Industry
This code belongs to the Electronics & Electrical Equipment industry.
Trade Overview
Germany, Italy, and China are leading manufacturers and exporters, with global demand from industries requiring precision metal forms.
