Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8501.40.50Same rate: 53.3%

If three-phase instead of single-phase

Three-phase AC gear motors in same power range fall under 8501.40.5024, differentiated by electrical configuration

8483.50.60.00Lower: 37.8% vs 53.3%

If imported as complete geared speed reducer without motor

Gearboxes or speed changers separate from motors classify under gearing heading 8483, not electric motors

8501.52Lower: 25% vs 53.3%

If output exceeds 746W even slightly

Power threshold strictly enforced; motors over 746W move to higher output subheadings in 8501.52

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify motor output rating with manufacturer's test data; customs requires precise measurement between 735-746W for this subheading

Include NEMA frame size and gear ratio specifications in commercial invoice to avoid reclassification as standard motors

Ensure CE marking or UL certification documentation for North American electrical standards compliance
