7019.72.30.00/RFL Impregnated Fiberglass Tire Cord Fabric 9.5 Micron/Canada

RFL Impregnated Fiberglass Tire Cord Fabric 9.5 Micron from Canada

This is a woven fabric made from continuous electrically nonconductive fiberglass filaments measuring 9.5 microns in diameter, specifically impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex (RFL) treatment to enhance adhesion to rubber compounds in tires. It falls under HTS 7019.72.30.00 due to its precise filament size (9-11 microns), non-colored status, and RFL impregnation for tire reinforcement applications. The chemical bonding and tire cord structure distinguish it from general glass fiber fabrics.

Import Tips

• Verify filament diameter (9-11 microns) and RFL impregnation via lab testing certificates to confirm HTS 7019.72.30.00 classification and avoid reclassification to broader subheadings

• Provide manufacturer's specs on electrical nonconductivity and adhesion treatment; include end-use declarations for tire cord to support bonding claims

• Watch for common pitfalls like incomplete impregnation documentation, which could lead to duties under 7019.72.50.00 or antidumping scrutiny on Chinese-origin goods
