RFL-Treated Colored Fiberglass Cord Fabric for Radial Tires

Specialized plain weave tire cord fabric from 9-11 micron nonconductive continuous fiberglass filaments, colored and impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex for superior rubber adhesion in radial tire plies. Classified under HTS 7019.63.70.00 for its exact filament specs, coloring, mechanical bonding without lamination, and RFL treatment designed for polymeric tire compounds. This distinguishes it from general glass fabrics.

Alternative Classifications

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

7019.63Same rate: 35%

If filaments outside 9-11 micron range

Fiberglass tire cord with different filament diameters (not precisely 9-11 microns) falls under the broader 'other' colored fabric subheading without the specific (622) designation.

5407.61Lower: 24.9% vs 35%

If treated as synthetic yarn fabric

Misinterpretation of RFL impregnation as a coating could shift it to man-made filament fabrics, though glass fibers remain in Chapter 70 per notes.

7019Same rate: 35%

If for coated or laminated versions

If additional coating beyond RFL impregnation is applied, it moves out of the 'not coated or laminated' subheading to coated glass fiber fabrics.

Import Tips & Compliance

Include tensile strength and adhesion test reports proving RFL efficacy for tire use; declare exact impregnation composition to comply with (622) statistical suffix

Watch for common pitfalls like incorrect weave declaration leading to 7019.62 classification

Resorcinol-Formaldehyde Impregnated Fiberglass Tire Cord Fabric

This closed woven plain weave fabric is made from electrically nonconductive continuous fiberglass filaments measuring 9-11 microns in diameter, colored, and specifically impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex (RFL) treatment to enhance adhesion to rubber compounds in tire manufacturing. It falls under HTS 7019.63.70.00 due to its precise filament size, weave type, nonconductive properties, coloring, and RFL impregnation tailored for tire cord applications. The mechanical bonding and lack of coating or lamination further confirm this classification.

9-Micron Continuous Filament Fiberglass Tire Fabric with RFL

Closed woven, plain weave fabric of colored, electrically nonconductive 9-micron diameter continuous fiberglass filaments, impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex for adhesion in high-performance tire production. HTS 7019.63.70.00 applies due to the filament size within 9-11 microns, specific RFL treatment, and tire cord purpose without lamination. Chapter notes confirm glass fibers' classification regardless of article character.
