Smoked natural rubber sheets are specifically under 4001.21, distinct from TSNR bale forms.
If compounded with rubber chemicals exceeding Chapter Note 5(b) limits
Compounded natural rubber mixtures shift to 4005, as they no longer retain raw material character.
If for latex form rather than solid bales
Natural rubber latex in liquid primary form is classified under 4001.1x subheadings, not solid TSNR.
