Torque converters
N266952 · 2015-08-21 — The tariff classification of a torque converter assembly from South Korea.
Descriptive literature and illustrations were submitted with your letter. The Torque Converter Assembly, part number 4510023005, is a fluid coupling used in motor vehicles. The Torque Converter Assembly connects to the drive plate of the engine and the input shaft of the automatic transmission and is designed to transfer rotary power from the engine to the automatic transmission. The main components consist of a housing and three rotating components: the impeller, the turbine and the reactor. The impeller converts the engine torque into the flow of automatic transmission fluid, which then…
N228035 · 2012-07-29 — The tariff classification of a variable fill fluid coupling from Italy.
This letter replaces New York Ruling N220937 which was issued on June 27, 2012. Clerical errors were made with regard to both the tariff number and part number and have been corrected. The amended letter reads as follows: In your letter dated June 5, 2012, on behalf of Screen Machine Industries, you requested a tariff classification ruling. The article in question is a variable fill fluid coupling (Part # KPTO). This hydrodynamic device is used to transmit rotating mechanical power from a diesel engine to a crusher machine. It also functions as a variable speed drive, or torque converter,…
N154375 · 2011-04-07 — The tariff classification of a geared variable-speed coupling from Germany
Descriptive literature and photographs were included with your submission. The article under consideration is described as a “Geared Variable-Speed Coupling.” Based on the information made available, the coupling is essentially a torque converter comprised of mechanical gears and a hydrodynamic speed-coupling. It connects a prime mover with a driven machine and allows for stepless speed control of the driven machine. The speed is affected by varying the filling grade of the operating fluid within the coupling as needed by means of a scoop tube. The applicable subheading for the Geared…
N056404 · 2009-04-27 — The tariff classification of fluid couplings from Germany
Technical literature and illustrations were submitted. The item in question is described as constant fill fluid couplings. These fluid couplings are power transmission units which are designed to transmit torque primarily in electric motors. They are also used in various industrial applications as well. The couplings are filled with operating fluid, usually mineral oil and consist of a pump wheel, a turbine wheel and an outer shell. The torque transmitted by the drive motor enables the pump wheel to which the motor is connected to convert mechanical energy into kinetic energy. In the turbine…
R01991 · 2005-06-13 — The tariff classification of a torque converter of unspecified origin
The article in question is described as a torque converter for use on a rider type self-propelled forklift. The torque converter is used as a fluid coupling to transmit engine power to the transmission gear train. Descriptive information was submitted. The applicable subheading for the torque converter will be 8483.40.1000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for torque converters. The rate of duty is free. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177). A copy of the ruling or the control number…
