RFL Impregnated Fiberglass Tire Cord Fabric 9.5 Microns
This is a woven fabric made from continuous electrically nonconductive fiberglass filaments measuring 9.5 microns in diameter, impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex (RFL) treatment to enhance adhesion to rubber compounds in tires. It falls under HTS 7019.69.30.00 due to its specific filament size (9-11 microns), mechanical bonding, non-colored nature, and RFL impregnation designed for tire reinforcement. Primarily used as a carcass or belt material in radial passenger car tires.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If filaments exceed 11 microns in diameter
Larger filament sizes (>11 microns) for tire cord are classified separately in 7019.40, excluding the narrow 9-11 micron spec of 7019.69.30.
If heavily rubberized beyond RFL treatment
Excessive polymeric impregnation making it textile fabric coated with rubber moves it to Chapter 59 as rubberized tire cord.
If colored or dyed
Colored fiberglass fabrics fall under 'Other' colored subheadings in 7019.69.20, not the non-colored 7019.69.30 category.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify filament diameter is precisely 9-11 microns via lab testing, as deviations shift classification to other 7019 subheadings
• Provide supplier certification for RFL impregnation and non-conductive properties to avoid reclassification as rubberized textile (5902)
• Ensure documentation proves tire cord end-use; bulk shipments without specs risk customs holds for measurement confirmation
