Bearing housings, incorporating ball or roller bearings

HS v2017 Code: 848320

About bearing housings, incorporating ball or roller bearings

hs code 848320 covers bearing housings that incorporate ball or roller bearings. These components are essential for a wide range of industrial machinery and equipment, enabling smooth and efficient operation. As a critical part of many manufacturing processes, the bearing housing industry plays a vital role in supporting the broader economy by facilitating the production and operation of diverse industrial applications.

Production process

Bearing housings are typically manufactured through a combination of casting, machining, and assembly processes. The housing is first cast, often from metal alloys, to create the basic shape and structure. This casting is then machined to precise specifications, ensuring the proper fit and alignment of the internal bearing components. Finally, the bearing and any other necessary parts are assembled into the housing, creating a complete, functional unit.

Production inputs

The production of bearing housings requires several key inputs, including metal alloys for the casting process, specialized machinery for machining, and high-quality ball or roller bearings. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled labor to operate the production equipment and assemble the final components. 848210 Ball or roller bearings and other related 848300 Transmission shafts and cranks; bearing housings and plain shaft bearings; gears and gearing; ball or roller screws; gear boxes and other speed changers, including torque converters are also important inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

Bearing housings produced under hs code 848320 are primarily used as components in a wide range of industrial machinery and equipment, such as 842123 Machinery for civil engineering, building, or the like and 848410 Lifting, handling, loading or unloading machinery. These bearing housings help to ensure the smooth and efficient operation of these larger systems, contributing to their overall performance and reliability.
