Import Tips
• Verify vulcanization process documentation to confirm not hard rubber, as hard rubber shifts to different chapters
• Include test reports proving seamless construction and chemical resistance to avoid reclassification as coated textiles
• Label fiber-free content accurately; common pitfall is misdeclaring thickness over regulatory limits
