HS Code for Industrial turbine parts

Industrial turbine parts, specifically for gas turbines excluding aviation propulsion units, are classified under HS code 8411.99. Heading 8411 covers turbo-jets, turbo-propellers, and other gas turbines. While the first few subheadings of 8411 deal with the turbines themselves, the 8411.9x series is dedicated to parts. Subheading 8411.91 is reserved for parts of turbo-jets or turbo-propellers, which are primarily used in the aerospace industry. Consequently, 8411.99 serves as the residual category for parts of "other" gas turbines, which includes those used for industrial power generation, mechanical drives in the oil and gas sector, and marine propulsion. Classification depends on the part being identifiable as intended for a gas turbine cycle rather than a steam turbine or an internal combustion engine. This distinction is vital for maintaining accurate trade statistics for the energy and manufacturing sectors.

Products Included

• Gas turbine blades and rotors
• Combustion chambers for industrial turbines
• Nozzles and stator vanes for gas turbines
• Fuel injectors for stationary gas turbines

Common Misclassification

Industrial turbine parts are frequently confused with 8411.91, which is strictly for aviation-related turbo-jets. Another common misclassification is 8406.90, which covers parts for steam turbines. If the part is a general-purpose component like a ball bearing or a seal, it may be classified under 8482 or 8484 respectively, unless it is specifically designed and uniquely identifiable as a turbine component.

FAQ
