RFL Impregnated Fiberglass Tire Cord Fabric 9.5 Micron from Germany
This is a closed weave plain weave fabric made from continuous electrically nonconductive fiberglass filaments measuring 9.5 microns in diameter, impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex (RFL) for optimal adhesion to rubber compounds in tire manufacturing. It falls under HTS 7019.64.70.00 due to its specific filament size range (9-11 microns), colored treatment, and RFL impregnation designed exclusively for tire cord applications. The mechanical bonding and lamination ensure durability under high stress in pneumatic tires.

Import Tips
• Verify filament diameter (9-11 microns) and RFL impregnation via lab testing, as deviations may reclassify to other subheadings
• Provide mill test certificates confirming nonconductive properties and weave specifications to avoid customs delays
