About HS Code 848790

This is a broad, residual HS code for non-electrical machinery parts that are not specified elsewhere in Chapter 84 and are not ships' propellers or blades. It encompasses a vast array of mechanical components used across nearly every industrial sector, from manufacturing and construction to agriculture and mining. These parts are essential for the assembly, maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) of machinery worldwide, ensuring the continued operation of industrial equipment. Trade in these goods is ubiquitous, reflecting the global interconnectedness of manufacturing supply chains. Importers and exporters span virtually all industrialized and developing nations, as these parts are fundamental to maintaining operational infrastructure and production capabilities.

Products Under This Code

Gears, Shafts, Bearings, Couplings, Flywheels, Pulleys, Sprockets, Hydraulic cylinders, Pneumatic actuators, Machine frames, Cams

Real World Examples

SKF Bearings, Timken Tapered Roller Bearings, Rexnord Couplings, Bosch Rexroth Hydraulic Cylinders, Siemens Gears

Common Misclassification

This code is a common 'catch-all' and is often confused with more specific parts codes (e.g., 848690 for semiconductor parts, 8409 for engine parts) or even complete machines if not clearly identified as a non-electrical part of general machinery.

Industry

This code belongs to the Electronics & Electrical Equipment industry.

Trade Overview

Due to its broad nature, virtually all industrialized and developing nations are involved in the import and export of these essential machinery parts.
