Import Tips

Confirm vulcanization status and rubber essential character despite polyurethane; submit material safety data sheets

Declare exact outside circumference measurement to avoid size-based reclassification

Label as 'transmission belting' not 'V-belt' to prevent shifts to other subheadings
