Products classified under HTS 1514.99.10.00

Refined Colza Oil for Rubber Substitutes

Refined colza oil, derived from Brassica napus seeds, imported specifically for use in manufacturing synthetic rubber substitutes like nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR). It serves as a processing oil to improve plasticity and reduce viscosity during compounding. Classified under HTS 1514.99.10.00 due to its designated end use in rubber production.

Low Erucic Rapeseed Oil for Lubricating Oil Production

Low erucic acid rapeseed oil (LEAR oil) fraction, refined but not chemically modified, imported for blending into industrial lubricating oils. It provides oxidative stability and viscosity index improvement in formulations. Falls under HTS 1514.99.10.00 for its explicit import purpose in lubricant manufacturing.

RBD Rapeseed Oil for Industrial Lubricants

RBD (refined, bleached, deodorized) rapeseed oil imported in bulk for manufacturing metalworking and hydraulic lubricating oils. It acts as a base stock with natural lubricity from triglycerides. HTS 1514.99.10.00 applies due to its specified use in lubricating oil production.

Cold-Pressed Colza Oil for Rubber Processing Aid

Cold-pressed colza oil fraction, unrefined but settled, for use as a processing aid in rubber substitute extrusion and molding. Enhances flow without saponification issues. Qualifies for HTS 1514.99.10.00 with end-use declaration for rubber manufacture.

High-Oleic Rapeseed Oil for Bio-Lubricants

Genetically selected high-oleic rapeseed oil fraction for eco-friendly bio-lubricant base stocks in machinery. Offers superior thermal stability for rubber substitute analogs. HTS 1514.99.10.00 for declared lubricating oil manufacturing import.

Refined Mustard Oil for Conveyor Belt Rubber

Refined mustard oil imported for compounding Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR) substitutes used in conveyor belts. Provides tackiness and dispersion of fillers. Strictly HTS 1514.99.10.00 with rubber manufacturing end-use proof.

Bleached Rapeseed Oil for Gear Lubricants

Bleached rapeseed oil fraction for high-performance gear lubricating oils in automotive substitutes. Reduces friction coefficients effectively. HTS 1514.99.10.00 designated for lube oil production imports.

Degummed Colza Oil for Tire Rubber Extender

Degummed colza oil used as extender oil in tire rubber substitute compounds, improving resilience. Not refined further to retain natural antioxidants. Imports under HTS 1514.99.10.00 for rubber mfr use.

Mustard Seed Oil Fraction for Synthetic Rubber Compounding

Refined fraction of mustard seed oil (Sinapis alba), imported to be used as a plasticizer in synthetic rubber substitutes for tires and belts. Its fatty acid profile aids in compounding and vulcanization processes. Classified in HTS 1514.99.10.00 based on declared manufacturing end use.
