Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If in the form of segments or blocks
Same asbestos basis but different shapes like segments fall under the prior sub-subheading 6813.20.00.10.
If mounted on clutch transmission parts
Assembled clutch components with mounted friction material are classified under Chapter 84 as transmission parts.
If primarily coated textile fabric rather than friction composite
Textile-based coated fabrics shift to Chapter 59 if not qualifying as friction material with dominant asbestos/mineral basis.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain prior import permits for asbestos-containing goods from environmental agencies like EPA
• Label shipments clearly as 'asbestos friction material' to prevent customs delays
• Watch for reclassification risks if textile content exceeds typical levels
