Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If V-ribbed cross-section
Ribbed V-belts have specific subheadings distinct from smooth 'other' belts.
If coated textile predominates
Textile base coated with PVC classifies in Chapter 59.
If containing substantial plasticizers
Plasticizer-heavy PVC may shift to Chapter 39 heading 3920 if meeting subheading definitions.
