Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If textile or metal reinforced
Reinforcement materials dictate specific subheadings in 3917.3.
If rubber-based like neoprene rather than plastic nylon
Material chapter distinction: plastics in 39, rubber in 40.
If for high-pressure pneumatic applications over 1,380 kPa
Pressure performance separates statistical categories.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Certify nylon polymer purity per chapter notes to avoid 'other' copolymer misclassification
• Test and document pressure rating under 1,380 kPa to remain in 0050
• Separate import from brass fittings; attached fittings change to 3917.40
