Import Tips
• Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) confirming polymer composition per Chapter 39 notes (≥95% predominant monomer)
• Measure core diameter and outer roll width accurately; exceedances lead to 3919.10.20.50
• Avoid classifying as 'masking tape' – specify filament reinforcement to prevent shift to 3919.10.10
