Acrylic Rod for Model Building
Solid round rods of clear acrylic polymer, diameter over 1 mm, surface-polished but not shaped further, used by hobbyists for structural models and prototypes. Classified in HTS 3916.90.1000 as rods of acrylic plastics not otherwise worked. The material's clarity and machinability make it ideal for scale models.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If produced as polymer sheets or film even if rigid
Even rigid acrylic sheets fall under 3920 plates/films if not in rod/stick form.
If imported as part of a complete model kit
Articles of plastics in sets for retail sale are classified by function in 3926.
If made from polycarbonate polymers instead
Same form but different base polymer changes to specific polycarbonate subheading.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include manufacturer specs confirming acrylic polymer purity over 95% by weight per Chapter 39 notes
• Label clearly as 'not further worked' to prevent CBP scrutiny; retain polishing process documentation
• Avoid bundling with end-use kits, as sets may trigger 3926.90 classification
