More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If primarily for gear cutting rather than shaping
Gear-specific cutting machines separate from general broaching/shaping under dedicated gear cutting provisions.
If for numerically controlled models
CNC broaching machines may classify under Chapter 84 bending/forging machines if numerically controlled.
If used in industrial machinery assembly
Broaching machines integrated into larger production lines classify as machines not elsewhere specified.
