RFL Impregnated Fiberglass Tire Cord Fabric 9.5 Micron
This woven fiberglass fabric uses continuous filaments measuring 9.5 microns in diameter, electrically nonconductive, and treated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex (RFL) for optimal adhesion to rubber in tire manufacturing. It falls under HTS 7019.69.70.00 due to its specific filament size range (9-11 microns), mechanical bonding, coloration, and RFL impregnation designed for tire cord applications. Primarily used as reinforcement in radial tires for enhanced durability.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not RFL impregnated
Untreated or differently treated fiberglass fabrics for tires fall under other subheadings in 7019.40 without the specific resorcinol formaldehyde latex requirement.
If considered tire cord treated only for adhesion to rubber
Rubberized textile fabrics of glass fibers, specifically for tires, may classify under Chapter 59 if the impregnation imparts substantial rubber characteristics.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify filament diameter (9-11 microns) and RFL impregnation via lab testing to avoid reclassification; provide manufacturer's specs on electrical nonconductivity and adhesion properties
• Common pitfall: Incomplete documentation on weave type leading to customs holds
