Chopped Strand Mat for Composites
Chemically bonded mat of chopped E-glass strands used as reinforcement in fiberglass composites for boats, automotive parts, and panels. Classified under HTS 7019.15.00.00 due to its chemical binder holding randomly oriented glass fibers in mat form. It provides strength and is compatible with polyester resins.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If supplied as loose chopped strands without matting
Loose chopped strands are classified separately from mats under 7019.11.
If mat is needle-punched rather than chemically bonded
Mechanically bonded mats may fall under panels or articles of mineral substances.
If other yarn, rovings, or fabrics not chemically bonded
Different bonding or form changes subheading within glass fiber articles.
