Products classified under HTS 6815.11.00.00
Toray T700S Carbon Fiber Tow
Toray T700S is a high-strength carbon fiber tow consisting of continuous filaments with approximately 12,000 filaments per strand, primarily used in aerospace and automotive composites. It falls under HTS 6815.11.00.00 as raw carbon fibers for non-electrical uses, distinct from woven fabrics or finished articles. This classification applies to unprocessed fiber tows before further manufacturing into prepregs or laminates.
SGL Carbon SIGRAFIL C T50-4.8K Tow
SGL Carbon SIGRAFIL C T50-4.8K is a 4.8K filament count carbon fiber tow with standard modulus, commonly used in sporting goods like bicycle frames and fishing rods. Falls under HTS 6815.11.00.00 for carbon fibers intended for non-electrical composite reinforcement. Delivered as continuous untwisted tows.
Hexcel IM7 Carbon Fiber
Hexcel IM7 is an intermediate modulus carbon fiber with 12K tow size, offering balanced strength and stiffness for wind turbine blades and sporting goods. Classified under HTS 6815.11.00.00 as carbon fibers for non-electrical applications like structural composites. It represents unprocessed fiber bundles prior to resin impregnation.
Teijin Tenax IMS65 Carbon Fiber Tow
Teijin Tenax IMS65 is a high-modulus carbon fiber tow (24K filaments) designed for pressure vessel and automotive applications requiring superior fatigue resistance. It qualifies under HTS 6815.11.00.00 as raw carbon fibers, not further processed into yarns, fabrics, or electrical components. Primarily used in filament winding processes.
Mitsubishi Rayon Grafil 34-700 12K Carbon Fiber
Mitsubishi Rayon Grafil 34-700 12K carbon fiber features high tensile strength for aerospace skins and marine structures. Classified in HTS 6815.11.00.00 as carbon fibers for non-electrical uses, excluding electrical brushes or conductors. Sold as greige tow requiring processing into prepregs.
