Last updated: August 2026 dataCastors — the wheeled or rolling fixtures used on furniture, equipment carts, and industrial platforms — are classified as a single 10-digit line (8302200000) in the US schedule, making material composition and end-use less relevant to classification than to duty analysis. China is the dominant supplier, with Taiwan and Germany also notable sources. Because all castors of base metal fall into one tariff line, importers focus classification effort on distinguishing castors from wheels or casters that may be more specifically described elsewhere in the schedule (e.g., under Chapter 87 for vehicle wheels).

Castors under 8302200000 are self-contained rolling assemblies — typically a wheel mounted in a swivel or fixed bracket — designed to be attached to furniture or equipment. Wheels that are integral components of vehicles or machinery are generally classified under their respective machinery or vehicle chapters rather than here.
Yes. The heading explicitly covers both castors and their parts, and the US schedule consolidates them into a single 10-digit line (8302200000). Importers should ensure that part shipments are clearly documented as castor components to support this classification if questioned at entry.
