Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If base includes paper or paperboard
Adding paper changes the base material, moving it out of 'woven textile fabric only' to paper-based abrasives.
If transmitted power or belting
Textile fabrics coated with abrasives for transmission of power classify under Chapter 59 as transmission products, not abrasives.
If on milled wood
Millstones and grinding wheels on wood bases fall under 6804, differentiating by base material from textile.
