Import Tips
• Label with precise circumference and cross-section specs to prevent confusion with V-ribbed belts in adjacent subheadings
• Ensure documentation shows industrial transmission use, not conveyor function (4010.31), to maintain classification
• Test for vulcanization level per Chapter 40 definition to avoid raw rubber headings 4001-4002
