Import Tips
• Submit filament diameter measurement reports from accredited labs to confirm 9-11 micron range during customs entry
• Label shipments clearly as 'tire cord fabric for rubber adhesion' to prevent classification as general textile under Chapter 54
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain fiberglass imports; check Commerce Department scopes for tire cord
