Import Tips
• Verify textile reinforcement composition via lab testing to confirm man-made fibers exceed other fibers by weight, as required for this subheading
• Provide manufacturer specs and fiber content declarations to avoid reclassification to general textile-reinforced belts under 4010.12.50
• Ensure no metal cords are present, as those shift to 4010.11; common pitfall is undeclared hybrid reinforcements
