4010.34.30.00 - Combined with textile materials

This HTS category, 4010.34.30.00, specifically covers endless transmission belts of vulcanized rubber that have a trapezoidal cross-section (commonly known as V-belts). Crucially, these V-belts are distinguished by their outside circumference, which must exceed 180 cm but not exceed 240 cm. The defining characteristic for classification within this code is the combination of the V-belt profile with textile materials incorporated within their structure to enhance strength and durability.

It's important to differentiate this classification from its sibling category, 4010.34.60.00, which covers "Other" transmission belts of trapezoidal cross-section. While both relate to V-belts, this specific code is limited to those with textile reinforcement and within the specified circumference range. The sibling category would encompass V-belts (either with or without textile reinforcement) that fall outside the 180 cm to 240 cm circumference limitation.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the primary focus for correct classification rests on confirming the V-belt design, the presence of textile materials, and the precise measurement of its outside circumference to ensure it falls within the 180 cm to 240 cm parameters. Examples of goods that would fall here include specialized industrial V-belts used in heavy machinery where these dimensional and material characteristics are met.
