8302.20 castors(small size),what is caster?Definition of caster.

Definition of castor

The term, “castor” is not defined in the HTSUSA or EN. In HQ 964994, dated February 7, 2002, CBP addressed the definition of a castor by referring to the following dictionary definitions:

“Castor” (or “caster”) is defined in pertinent part as follows in the stated references: Merriam-Webster OnLine (www.m-w.com): “ . . . 3: any of a set of wheels  or rotating balls mounted in a swivel frame and used for the support  and movement of furniture, trucks, and portable equipment . . . “

The Random House Dictionary of the English Language(unabridged ed.; 1973):

‘ . . . 2. A small wheel on a swivel, set under a  piece of furniture, a machine, etc., to facilitate moving it . . .”

Castors of heading 8302 must have mountings of base metal.  The wheels, however, can be made of any material, except precious metal. Castors commonly have wheels of rubber or plastic; this does not preclude them from classification within this subheading.  The presence of spokes has no effect on the classification. There are specific size requirements for castors in heading 8302.  Chapter 83, Note 2 reads as follows: For the purposes of heading 8302, the word “castors” means those having a diameter (including, where appropriate, tires) not exceeding 75 mm, or those having a diameter (including, where appropriate, tires) exceeding 75 mm, provided that the width of the wheel or tire fitted thereto is less than 30 mm. In other words, castors of chapter 83 are relatively small; converted to inches, they measure 2.9 inches or less in diameter or less than 1.1 inch in width.  Castors having pneumatic tires must be measured with the tire inflated to normal pressure.   In HQ 964994, dated February 7, 2002, CBP addressed the classification of a shopping cart castor with a steel mounting and a wheel that measured 25 mm in width.  The castor incorporated an electronic circuit board, receiver, battery and an actuator device, which closed a steel shell around the wheel to prevent removal of the cart from the store site.  CBP determined that, regardless of the electronic components, the castor assembly unit met the terms of heading 8302, HTSUS, in that it remained essentially a castor.

For those caster classify into 8302,we call it “mini duty castor wheel ” or “light duty caster wheel” as it is small in size.
