Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If considered 'sheet' rather than profile shape
Flat or sheet-like plastic forms over 1 mm classify in 3920 plates/sheets.
If sized ≤38.1 cm width per US note
Smaller flexible plastic sheets/strips may qualify for special rates under 3921 US note.
If extruded as rigid tubing profile
Certain hollow profile shapes classify as rigid tubes/pipes in 3917.
