Products classified under HTS 8479.10.00.60
Asphalt Road Paver Machine
A self-propelled machine equipped with a hopper, conveyor system, and screed for laying down hot mix asphalt to create smooth road surfaces. It falls under HTS 8479.10.00.60 as it is specifically designed for spreading bituminous material during road construction and paving operations.
Bituminous Surface Finisher
A finishing machine with vibrating screed and leveling sensors that compacts and smooths freshly laid asphalt surfaces for optimal density and evenness. Classified under HTS 8479.10.00.60 due to its dedicated function in finishing bituminous road layers during paving.
Hot Mix Asphalt Screed Unit
Extendable screed attachment for asphalt pavers that distributes and initially compacts hot bituminous mix to specified thickness and slope. It qualifies for HTS 8479.10.00.60 as integral machinery for bituminous spreading and finishing in roadwork.
Asphalt Distributor Truck
Truck-mounted spray bar system for even distribution of liquid bituminous binders or tack coats before asphalt layer placement. Falls under HTS 8479.10.00.60 for its role in bituminous material spreading during road construction preparation.
Bituminous Chip Sealer
Combined spreader that simultaneously applies bituminous emulsion and aggregate chips for surface treatment and seal coating of roads. Classified in HTS 8479.10.00.60 as specialized machinery for bituminous material spreading in maintenance paving.
Self-Propelled Asphalt Finisher
Tracked or wheeled machine with automated grade control for precision finishing of bituminous wearing courses in highway construction. HTS 8479.10.00.60 applies due to its specific design for bituminous material finishing and compaction.
Tandem Asphalt Roller for Paving
Double drum vibratory roller designed for initial breakdown rolling of hot bituminous mats immediately after paver placement. While primarily compaction, its paving train integration qualifies it under HTS 8479.10.00.60 for bituminous finishing operations.
Bituminous Mixing Plant Feeder
Hopper and conveyor system that feeds aggregates and bitumen into asphalt mixing plants for hot mix production prior to paving. HTS 8479.10.00.60 covers its role in bituminous material preparation for spreading operations.
Road Asphalt Rejuvenator Sprayer
High-pressure sprayer for applying bituminous rejuvenating agents to aged asphalt surfaces to restore flexibility and prevent cracking. Classified under HTS 8479.10.00.60 for bituminous material spreading in road maintenance.
