Heavy-Duty Rubber-Coated Work Gloves from Germany

These industrial work gloves are cut and sewn from pre-existing machine-woven cotton fabric impregnated and coated with natural rubber on the palms and fingers for enhanced grip and protection. They lack fourchettes, classifying them under HTS 6216.00.21.10 as gloves impregnated or coated with rubber, subject to cotton restraints due to the cotton base fabric.

Import Tips

Verify the base fabric is pre-existing machine-woven cotton coated with rubber/plastics to confirm 6216.00.21.10 classification; provide lab tests for coating composition

Include certificates of origin and fiber content labels showing cotton restraint applicability; watch quota limits under 331

Avoid misclassification as knitted gloves (Chapter 61); ensure no fourchettes and document sewing from impregnated fabric
