RFL Impregnated Fiberglass Tire Cord Fabric 9.5 Micron

This open weave fiberglass fabric is woven from continuous electrically nonconductive filaments measuring 9.5 microns in diameter, impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex (RFL) for enhanced adhesion to rubber compounds in tire manufacturing. It weighs under 250 g/m² with plain weave construction and width over 30 cm, precisely matching HTS 7019.66.30.00 specifications for tire cord applications.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify filament diameter (9-11 microns) and RFL impregnation via lab testing; documentation must include supplier specs and treatment certificates

Ensure electrical nonconductivity certification; common pitfall is misclassifying conductive variants

Provide end-use declaration for tire cord to avoid reclassification; comply with TSCA for chemical treatments
