8482.10.50.32 - Maximum or full capacity type 🖩

This HTS category, 8482.10.50.32, specifically classifies single row radial ball bearings that are of the "maximum or full capacity type." These bearings are designed to accommodate a higher load capacity for their size compared to standard single row radial ball bearings. This is typically achieved through the inclusion of a greater number of balls, or balls of a larger diameter, within the bearing's raceways, often necessitating a filling slot on one or both sides of the ball complement.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, "Other bearings, having an outside diameter of:", is crucial. While the sibling focuses on a dimensional criterion (outside diameter) for its sub-classification, this category is defined by its functional design for enhanced load-bearing capability. Therefore, a bearing classified here will meet the criteria of a single row radial ball bearing and possess the specific "maximum or full capacity" design, irrespective of its outside diameter, which would be further addressed at subsequent levels of classification if applicable.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification concludes at this specific descriptor, emphasizing the type of radial ball bearing based on its load capacity design.
