Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If constructed from bronze substitutes like steel
Non-copper bushings for identical applications use steel alloy provisions in the same heading.
If imported as standalone plain shaft bearings
Bearings not tied to specific machinery may classify under Chapter 84 bearing headings regardless of material.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide engineering drawings showing compatibility only with 8430 backhoes to support 'solely or principally' criterion
• Label with exact copper alloy grade (e.g
• C93200) for customs verification and duty accuracy
