8482.99.65.95 - Other

This HTS category, 8482.99.65.95, encompasses all remaining parts of ball or roller bearings that are not specifically enumerated in the preceding subheadings. It serves as a residual classification for components that do not fit into more specific "parts of" categories within the roller bearing family. Examples of items that might fall into this classification include specialized retaining cages made of uncommon materials, unique sealing elements not covered elsewhere, or other miscellaneous parts whose design or function does not align with the specific roller bearing types listed as siblings.

This subheading is distinguished from its siblings, 8482.99.65.10 (for spherical roller bearings), 8482.99.65.30 (for needle bearings), and 8482.99.65.60 (for other cylindrical roller bearings), by its broad exclusion of parts specifically intended for those named bearing types. Essentially, if a bearing part is not clearly identifiable as belonging to spherical, needle, or other cylindrical roller bearings, and is not otherwise specified in a more general "parts of ball and roller bearings" category, it would likely be classified here. The crucial determining factor is the absence of a more precise fit within the hierarchical structure of the HTS for bearing components.

As a leaf node, 8482.99.65.95 does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification within this category is on carefully examining the physical characteristics and intended use of the part. Importers and exporters should confirm that the part in question is indeed a component of a ball or roller bearing and that it does not meet the criteria for any of the more specific sibling categories or higher-level classifications within Chapter 84.
