Import Tips
• Verify exact outside circumference measurement (150-198 cm) and pitch to confirm 4010.36.90 classification; provide engineering specs in entry docs
• Ensure declaration of tensile cord material (e.g
• fiberglass) as it doesn't affect rubber heading but avoids textile Chapter 59 misclassification
