Import Tips
• Submit weave diagrams and yarn specs proving plain weave and mechanical bonding to comply with subheading requirements
• Avoid pitfalls by confirming no absorbent/reflecting layers per Chapter 70 notes, which could shift to drawn glass sheets
• Label clearly as glass fiber product; mislabeling as synthetic textile leads to Chapter 59 reclassification
