Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If manufacturing scrap/waste
Note 6 defines waste as not usable as-is from working rubber goods.
If reclaimed rubber
Reclaimed from used articles goes to separate heading.
If formed into rods/profile >5mm
Note 6 and 8 distinguish processed shapes from bulk crumbs.
