HDPE Round Monofilament Rod

A high-density polyethylene (HDPE) monofilament rod with a diameter exceeding 1 mm, used in fishing nets and industrial weaving. It is made from polymers of ethylene where ethylene monomers constitute 95% or more by weight, classifying it under HTS 3916.10.00.00 as monofilament not otherwise worked.

LDPE Square Profile Stick

Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) square profile sticks over 1 mm cross-section, used for edging and seals in packaging. Classified under 3916.10.00.00 as profile shapes of ethylene polymers, meeting the 95% monomer threshold without further working.

Ethylene Polymer Monofilament Fishing Line Base

Thick HDPE monofilament exceeding 1 mm diameter, serving as base material for heavy-duty fishing lines and nets. Falls under HTS 3916.10.00.00 due to ethylene polymer composition and lack of further processing beyond surface working.

PE Rod for 3D Printer Filament Precursor

Polyethylene rod stock with cross-section >1 mm, used as precursor for custom 3D printing filaments. Classified in 3916.10.00.00 as unworked rod of ethylene polymers per 95% monomer rule.
