Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7019.12.00Higher: 39.8% vs 39.3%

If made from continuous filament yarn rather than chopped strands

Mats from yarn (continuous filaments) fall under 7019.12, distinct from chopped strand mats.

5911.90.00Lower: 38.8% vs 39.3%

If coated or treated for textile machinery use

Impregnated or coated glass fiber mats for technical textiles shift to Chapter 59.

7019Same rate: 39.3%

If woven into fabrics rather than mechanically bonded

Woven glass fiber structures are classified under 7019.40, not mat forms.

Import Tips & Compliance

Label shipments with exact grammage and fiber length to comply with statistical reporting suffixes

Ensure no pre-impregnation with resins, as that would reclassify to heading 7019 subheadings for treated fibers

Related Products under HTS 7019.14.00.00

E-Glass Mechanically Bonded Mat

E-Glass mechanically bonded mats consist of chopped glass fibers bonded together without chemical resins, used primarily as reinforcement in composite materials. They fall under HTS 7019.14.00.00 as mats of glass fibers that are mechanically bonded, distinguishing them from chemically bonded or woven fabrics. These mats are lightweight and provide strength in applications like boat hulls and wind turbine blades.

Needle-Punched Glass Fiber Mat

Needle-punched mats are produced by mechanically interlocking chopped glass fibers through repeated needle punching, creating a stable non-woven structure. HTS 7019.14.00.00 covers these mechanically bonded mats of glass fibers, used in roofing felts and geotextiles. They differ from stitch-bonded or resin-bound variants.

Geotextile Grade Mechanical Glass Mat

Mechanically needled glass fiber mats designed for soil stabilization and drainage in civil engineering geotextiles. HTS 7019.14.00.00 for mechanically bonded mats of glass fibers, valued for high tensile strength and filtration. UV-stabilized without chemical binders.

C-glass Mechanically Bonded Mat for Corrosion Resistance

C-glass (corrosion-resistant) fibers formed into mechanically bonded mats for chemical tanks and pipes in FRP. HTS 7019.14.00.00 includes all glass fiber types in mechanical mats, per fused silica/glass definition. Higher cost but superior to E-glass in harsh environments.

Wind Blade Infusion Mat Mechanical

Large-format mechanically stitched glass mats optimized for vacuum infusion in wind turbine blade manufacturing. HTS 7019.14.00.00 for mechanically bonded glass fiber mats, with biaxial or triaxial layups. Engineered for low resin uptake and high strength.
