Metallized PET Capacitor Film from Japan

High-clarity metallized PET film for metallized film capacitors in electronics, offering dielectric strength. HTS 3920.62.0050 applies to this thin (<10 micron), noncellular, unsupported polyester film where PET monomers dominate (>95%). Imported in precision-slit rolls.

Import Tips

Provide dielectric specs and metallization pattern details; purity certs critical for 95% PET threshold

Classify as film only if not pre-wound on cores; wound capacitors may go to 3926 or 8532

Watch for 'chemically modified' claims; unmodified PET stays here per note (b)(2)
