C-Glass Needle-Punched Nonwoven

Uncolored C-glass fiber nonwoven fabric needle-punched to 180 g/m², ideal for corrosion-resistant battery separators and roofing underlayment. HTS 7019.69.40.10 applies due to mechanical bonding, lack of color, and weight ≤185 g/m², excluding it from woven or colored categories.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

7019Same rate: 42.3%

If chemically bonded

Chemical bonding (e.g., resin) places it in 7019.40 subheading, differing from pure mechanical methods.

6808.00.00Lower: 35% vs 42.3%

If sold as pre-formed panels or shaped articles

If cut to shape post-annealing and considered 'articles' beyond fabric, may shift to 6808 worked monumentals, but Chapter Note keeps many in 7019.

Import Tips & Compliance

Submit fiber composition analysis proving C-glass (silica-based) meets fused silica/glass definition in Chapter Note

Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'felt'—specify mechanical bonding to stay in 7019 vs. 5602 textile felts

For sets with resins, declare components separately to prevent classification as composite articles elsewhere
