Cotton Work Gloves with Rubber Coating from Japan

Heavy-duty gloves cut and sewn from pre-existing machine-knit cotton fabric impregnated with natural rubber on the palms and fingers for enhanced grip and protection. These gloves fall under HTS 6116.10.17 as they are made of vegetable fibers (cotton), without fourchettes, and the knit fabric is pre-coated with rubber before sewing. Ideal for industrial handling tasks requiring durability and abrasion resistance.

Import Tips

• Verify the knit fabric was pre-impregnated with rubber/plastics before cutting and sewing to qualify under this subheading; post-sewing coating shifts to another code

• Provide lab tests confirming vegetable fiber content (e.g

• cotton >97%) and coating material to avoid reclassification to man-made fiber headings

• Ensure no fourchettes (side panels between fingers) are present, as their inclusion moves to 6116.10.15
