U.S. imports of Tapered Roller Bearings (SITC 74620) totaled $49.7M in August 2026, imported from 42 countries.
Importers of Tapered Roller Bearings paid $9.9M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 20.03% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataTapered roller bearings — including cone and tapered roller assemblies — are engineered to handle combined radial and axial loads, making them essential in heavy-duty automotive axles, gearboxes, and construction equipment. The geometry of the tapered rolling element distinguishes this category from cylindrical and spherical roller bearings, and that distinction drives both engineering selection and customs classification. Like other bearing types, tapered roller bearings have been subject to antidumping proceedings from multiple origins; importers should confirm current order coverage before finalizing sourcing arrangements.

Complete cone-and-cup assemblies are generally classified as tapered roller bearings under SITC 74620. Individual cones, cups, or loose rollers sold separately may fall under bearing parts headings instead. Importers should confirm whether their shipment constitutes a complete assembly or discrete components, as the distinction affects both duty treatment and antidumping scope.
Automotive drivetrain manufacturing — particularly axle and transmission assembly — is the dominant end-use sector, followed by heavy construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and rail applications. Demand is closely tied to vehicle production cycles and infrastructure investment, making import volumes sensitive to those sectors' output levels.
