If the rubber is in primary forms (e.g., bales, powder) rather than rods
Synthetic rubber in primary forms falls under heading 40.02.
If the rod is cut to a specific shape for a particular use
Articles of vulcanized rubber, other than hard rubber, are classified under heading 40.16 when they are more than simply cut to shape.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the rod is noncellular and vulcanized, and that it is not cut to shape or further worked beyond cutting to length
• Keep supplier documentation showing the NBR composition for CBSA verification
• If the rod is threaded or has a cross-sectional dimension exceeding 5 mm, it may be classified as strip, rods, or profile shapes under heading 40.08, but note that thread of vulcanized rubber over 5 mm is classified as strip or profile shapes
