Overview

This HTS category, 8482, encompasses a broad range of rolling-element bearings, which are critical components in countless mechanical systems. These bearings are designed to reduce friction between moving parts by employing balls or rollers situated between two rings or races. The primary function is to facilitate smooth rotational or linear motion, thereby enabling the operation of machinery from simple hand tools to complex industrial equipment. The scope of this heading includes not only the complete bearing units but also essential parts thereof, provided they are identifiable as being for such bearings.

When classifying within Section XVI, which deals with machinery and mechanical appliances, Chapter 84 specifically addresses nuclear reactors, boilers, and a vast array of machinery. Heading 8482 stands apart from other machinery headings by focusing exclusively on the specialized components that enable movement within these machines. It is distinct from headings that classify complete machines or other types of mechanical elements, such as gears or couplings, by its specific focus on the technology of rolling-element support.

Within heading 8482, subcategories differentiate bearings based on their rolling element. This allows for precise classification based on design and application, such as ball bearings (8482.10), which use spherical rolling elements, or tapered roller bearings (8482.20.00), designed to handle both radial and axial loads. Further distinctions are made for spherical roller bearings (8482.30.00), needle roller bearings (8482.40.00.00), and cylindrical roller bearings (8482.50.00.00), each with unique characteristics suited to specific operational demands. A separate classification exists for other types, including combined ball and roller bearings (8482.80.00), and a distinct category is reserved for the parts of these bearings, ensuring all components are appropriately accounted for.
