AR-Glass Chopped Fibers for Concrete Reinforcement
AR-glass chopped fibers, longer than 50mm, are alkali-resistant and specifically engineered for concrete and cement reinforcement to enhance tensile strength. These loose chopped strands fall under tariff item 7019.19.00 as other glass fibres, given their length exceeds 50mm and they are not further processed into mats or fabrics.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Classify AR-glass fibers by their length; those over 50mm fall under 7019.19.00
• Include technical specifications showing alkali resistance and length to avoid reclassification
• Check if the fibers require any special permits for construction materials
