3M Scotch 8979 Filament Tape
This is a high-strength polypropylene tape reinforced with continuous glass filaments, designed for heavy-duty packaging and palletizing. It falls under HTS 3919.10.20.10 as it is a self-adhesive tape in rolls under 20 cm wide with filament reinforcement. The adhesive backing and filament structure provide exceptional tensile strength for bundling applications.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If roll width exceeds 20 cm
Tapes in wider rolls are classified separately within the same 'Other' subheading series based on width threshold.
If not self-adhesive
Non-adhesive filament-reinforced tapes are classified as metallised textile materials rather than plastic self-adhesive products.
If sold as pre-cut plates or sheets, not in rolls
Shifts from roll form tapes to other non-adhesive plastic plates/sheets of polymers of vinyl chloride.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify filament reinforcement (e.g
• glass or polyester) and tape width ≤20 cm to confirm classification under 3919.10.20.10; measure precisely to avoid reclassification
• Provide lab test reports on plastic composition (e.g
• BOPP base) and adhesive type for CBP review; ensure 'self-adhesive' labeling on invoices
