3920.49.00.00 - Other

This category, HTS 3920.49.00.00, encompasses "Other" plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip made from polymers of vinyl chloride. These articles are characterized by being noncellular, meaning they do not contain cells or pores, and are not reinforced, laminated, supported, or otherwise combined with other materials. This signifies that the material consists solely of the vinyl chloride polymer in a solid form.

This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 3920.43, which specifically covers vinyl chloride polymer articles containing at least 6% by weight of plasticizers. Therefore, HTS 3920.49.00.00 is for vinyl chloride sheeting that either contains less than 6% plasticizers or no plasticizers at all. The key differentiator lies in the specific composition and presence of plasticizers, which can significantly alter the flexibility and properties of the final product.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to detail. Classification within this code is therefore based on a direct assessment of the product against the criteria of being a plate, sheet, film, foil, or strip of vinyl chloride polymer, that is noncellular and not otherwise combined with other materials, and importantly, does not meet the specific plasticizer content threshold defined in the preceding sibling category. Examples may include rigid or semi-rigid vinyl sheeting used for various industrial or packaging purposes where flexibility is not a primary requirement imparted by plasticizers.
