V-Belt Synchronous Transmission Belt with Jute Reinforcement from Japan
An endless synchronous transmission belt made of vulcanized rubber with an outside circumference of 175 cm, combined with textile components where jute fibers predominate by weight. It is designed for industrial machinery power transmission, ensuring precise timing and high torque capacity. Classified under HTS 4010.36.30.00 due to the vulcanized rubber base and predominant vegetable fiber textile reinforcement.

Import Tips
• Verify textile composition certificates showing vegetable fibers like jute predominate by weight over other fibers to avoid reclassification
• Ensure accurate measurement of outside circumference (150-198 cm) and provide engineering specs confirming synchronous design
