HS Code for Roller bearing

Roller bearings are classified under HS code 8482.80, which serves as a category for bearings not elsewhere specified within heading 8482. Heading 8482 is the primary classification for ball or roller bearings used in machinery to reduce friction between moving parts. While specific subheadings exist for tapered, spherical, and needle rollers, subheading 8482.80 is utilized for combined ball and roller bearings or other specialized roller bearing configurations that do not fit the more specific definitions. These components are essential in mechanical engineering, providing support for rotating shafts and handling radial or axial loads. The classification depends on the physical construction of the bearing and the shape of the rolling elements contained within the outer and inner rings.

Products Included

• Combined ball and roller bearings
• Cylindrical roller bearings (not specified elsewhere)
• Industrial roller bearings for heavy machinery
• Custom configuration roller bearings

Common Misclassification

This code is often confused with more specific roller bearing codes such as 8482.20 (tapered roller bearings), 8482.30 (spherical roller bearings), and 8482.40 (needle roller bearings). If a bearing contains only one of these specific roller types, it must be classified under those specific codes rather than the general 8482.80. Additionally, plain shaft bearings without rolling elements are classified under 8483.30.

FAQ

What is the HS code for roller bearings?

The HS code for combined ball/roller bearings or other non-specified roller bearings is 8482.80.

Are bearing parts classified under this code?

No, parts such as balls, needles, and rollers are classified under 8482.91, while other parts like races or cages fall under 8482.99.
