U.S. imports of parts & accessories for specialized industry machine tools (n.e.s.) (SITC 72819) totaled $41.9M in April 2026, traded with 48 countries.
Importers of Parts & Accessories for Specialized Industry Machine Tools (N.E.S.) paid $3.1M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 15% on $20.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataClassified under SITC 72819, these parts and accessories are designed for use solely or principally with machine tools specialized for particular industries not elsewhere specified — a residual category that captures highly application-specific tooling components that don't fit neatly into narrower headings. Correct classification here often hinges on demonstrating that the part is dedicated to a specialized machine tool rather than a general-purpose one, a distinction customs authorities scrutinize closely. Importers should document the machine's end-use industry and the part's functional exclusivity to support the classification claim.

The key test is whether the part is suitable for use solely or principally with a machine tool designed for a specific industry application. General-purpose parts that can serve multiple machine types typically fall outside this heading. Technical documentation from the OEM identifying the machine's dedicated industrial function is the strongest supporting evidence for this classification.
'N.E.S.' means 'not elsewhere specified' — this heading is a residual catch-all for specialized machine tool parts that don't qualify under more specific SITC subheadings. Importers should first confirm the part doesn't belong to a more precisely defined category before defaulting to 72819, as misclassification can affect duty treatment and statistical reporting.
