If parts of finished axles like journals
Separate machined journals or crank pins classify as axle parts, not complete axles.
If with integrated gearing
Axles incorporating transmission shafts or gears shift to transmission machinery parts.
If bulk steel tubes used in axle construction
Hollow steel tubes for axle fabrication classify under steel tubes if not yet axles.
