RE: The tariff classification of a shaft couplings from Canada

Dear Ms. McLeod:

In your letter dated October 29, 2006 you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of Spiro-Flex Industries.

The articles in question are described as replacement couplers of various sizes that join a pump shaft to a motor shaft. The couplings allow torque to be transmitted from the output shaft of the motor to the main shaft of the pump. Descriptive literature was submitted.

The applicable subheading for shaft couplings will be 8483.60.8000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for other clutches and shaft couplings. The general rate of duty will be 2.8 percent ad valorem.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Kenneth T. Brock at 646-733-3009.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
