Heavy Haul Freight Car Axle from United States

This is a high-strength alloy steel axle designed for heavy haul freight cars rated at 286,000 lb, a common standard for North American rail freight. It is a railway rolling-stock axle, not self-propelled, and not in the rough, so it falls under the 'Other' axles classification. The axle is a part of railway rolling-stock, which is covered by heading 86.07.

Import Tips

• Ensure the axle is not classified as a part of general use (e.g

• bolts or washers) under Section XV, as those fall outside Chapter 86

• Provide a detailed product specification sheet to CBSA, including alloy composition and heat treatment, to confirm it is not 'in the rough'

• If the axle is imported with wheels already fitted, it may be classified under a different tariff item, so verify the condition at time of import
