Import Tips
• Require lab test reports confirming man-made fiber weight predominance over natural fibers in textile components
• Include technical data sheets showing tooth profile confirming synchronous belt classification vs V-belts
• Avoid misdeclaration as 'conveyor' belt (4010.10); these are specifically transmission/synchronous types
