Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If frame sold separately without healds
Heald-frames are specific, but plain frames may be other weaving machine parts.
If imported as individual metal eyelets or links
Disassembled heald components become other steel screws/bolts/washers.
If adapted for agricultural or harvesting machinery
Parts for non-textile machinery like crop conveyors use different headings.
