Import Tips

Verify filament diameter (9-11 microns) and RFL impregnation via lab testing to confirm HTS 7019.62.05.00 classification and avoid reclassification to broader fabric codes

Provide mill test certificates documenting electrical nonconductivity and treatment composition for U.S

Customs review

Ensure proper invoicing specifies tire cord end-use to prevent misclassification as general glass fabric
