U.S. imports of sets or assortments of gaskets and similar joints (HS 848490) totaled $14.2M in June 2026, traded with 55 countries.
Importers of Sets or Assortments of Gaskets and Similar Joints paid $1.9M in duties in June 2026 — an effective duty rate of 14% on $13.1M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Packaged assortments of gaskets — dissimilar in composition and put up in pouches, envelopes, or similar retail-style packaging — serve the automotive aftermarket, MRO, and repair industries, where technicians need a range of sealing materials in a single kit. Germany and Japan lead US import supply of these assortments, reflecting the strength of European and Japanese automotive parts aftermarkets. All goods under this heading enter under a single 10-digit line (8484900000); the critical classification issue is whether the set is genuinely mixed in composition and packaged for retail or professional use, as homogeneous bulk gaskets would be classified under 8484.10 instead. India and Italy are also notable sources, consistent with the heading's broad industrial-parts aftermarket orientation.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Heading 8484.90 specifically requires that the set be dissimilar in composition — meaning the individual gaskets differ in material (e.g., some metallic, some rubber, some fiber) — and that they be put up in pouches, envelopes, or similar packings for retail or professional sale. A bulk shipment of identical gaskets, even if mixed sizes, would not qualify and should be classified under the appropriate single-material heading.
Yes. If CBP determines that a kit's gaskets are substantially uniform in material composition, it may reclassify the shipment under heading 8484.10 (metallic composite gaskets) or another more specific provision. Importers should ensure that the commercial invoice and packing list clearly document the variety of materials present in each assortment and that the packaging conforms to the retail or professional-use format described in the heading.
