Import Tips
• Verify whether the cylinder is presented as a complete dryer or as a part of a tissue machine; if a part, it may be classified under heading 84.19 parts (8419.90)
• Provide specifications showing the steam-heated drying function is primary, even though creping is also performed
• If the cylinder includes a doctor blade for creping, confirm whether that affects classification under Section XVI Note 3
