RE: The tariff classification of actuators from France.
Dear Mr. Slagle:
In your letter dated May 8, 1990, on behalf of SKF Component
Systems Co., you requested a tariff classification ruling.
The merchandise is actuators, imported without their motors,
designed to be incorporated into a continuous casting machine to
move the tundish vertically. After importation a motor will be
added to complete the actuator.
The applicable subheading for the actuators will be
8503.00.6020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for parts suitable for use solely or
principally with machines of heading 8501 and 8502, other. The
rate of duty will be 3 percent ad valorem.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
