Import Tips
• Include supplier certification of E-glass composition (silica >60%) to support Chapter 70 classification
• Document areal weight and roving count to prevent confusion with lighter woven fabrics under 7019.59
• Check for sizing residues that might be mistaken for coloring; provide lab analysis if challenged
