8482.99.25 - Other

This HTS classification, 8482.99.25, covers parts of ball or roller bearings that are not otherwise specified. Specifically, it pertains to the inner or outer rings or races of such bearings. These components are critical to the function of bearings, providing the surface upon which the rolling elements (balls or rollers) move. The rings are typically made from hardened steel or other durable materials, precisely machined to achieve the required tolerances for smooth and efficient operation.

This category is distinguished from its siblings, 8482.99.05 (For ball bearings) and 8482.99.15 (For tapered roller bearings), by its broader scope within the realm of bearing rings. While the siblings are narrowly defined for specific bearing types (all-ball or tapered roller), 8482.99.25 is a residual category that includes rings for various other types of roller bearings where a more specific classification is not applicable.

Within this category, further subdivisions exist to provide greater specificity for different types of roller bearing rings. These subcategories include rings for spherical roller bearings (8482.99.25.20), needle bearings (8482.99.25.40), and other cylindrical roller bearings (8482.99.25.60). The residual subcategory, 8482.99.25.80, covers any remaining rings not fitting into these more defined groups, ensuring all types of bearing rings are appropriately classified.
