Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If functioning primarily as mechanical bearings
Bushings without specific electrical insulating design or properties are classified as mechanical parts in heading 8482.
If predominantly plastic, general purpose use
Non-electrical plastic bushings fall under other plastic articles of subheading 3926.90, not specialized insulating fittings.
If electrical insulators not fittings for assembly
Other electrical insulators of any material go to 8548 if not specifically 'fittings' with minor metal for assembly per 8547.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include manufacturer specs confirming insulating properties and minor metal content (<10% by weight typically)
• Label shipments clearly as 'insulating fittings for electrical machines' to prevent confusion with plain mechanical bushings
