Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If cross-section ≤1 mm and presented in hanks/wound
Finer monofilaments for textile use (e.g., brushes resembling yarn) fall under Chapter 54.
If cut to length and bundled for retail brush making
Pre-cut lengths become 'other articles of plastics' rather than raw profile shapes.
If imported as PVC pellets/powder before extrusion
Unextruded PVC polymers classify under 3904, not shaped monofilaments.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Label clearly as 'unfinished monofilament' to distinguish from assembled brushes under 9603
