Alternative Classifications

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

7019Same rate: 41%

If classified as needle-punched felt rather than chemically bonded

Battery separator felts without chemical bonding process go to other nonwovens in 7019.59.

8507.90.80Higher: 53.4% vs 41%

If imported as assembled battery component

Complete battery parts classify under Chapter 85 electrical machinery, not raw glass fabrics.

7019.73Same rate: 41%

If narrower width under specific dimensional limits

Fabrics under 30cm width have separate statistical breakout in 7019.73.10.
