Import Tips
• 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
