The spaces only make the code easier to read. Customs declarations normally use the unspaced form, 84879051.
This is the catch-all under 8487 90: it covers what the sibling codes below do not.
This is the remaining group of parts in the parent category: cast-steel, non-electrical parts not covered by the sibling categories for cast iron, forged iron or steel, other iron and steel, other materials, or ship and boat screws and their blades.
Compare the sibling codes at this level before you settle on this one.
