Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If vulcanized profile shapes
Vulcanization moves all rubber profiles/rods to heading 4008.
If specifically for vehicle use after vulcanization
Vulcanized rubber parts of vehicles classify under 4016.99.
If simple flat strips/sheets
Chapter note 8 requires rectangular uncut shapes for 4006.10; profiles are other.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Supply CAD drawings matching extrusion to prove specific profile shaping
• Test durometer hardness (<30 Shore A typical for unvulcanized) for verification
• Separate from vulcanized profiles which would go to Chapter 40 automotive parts
