5910.00.10.30 - Other

This HTS category, 5910.00.10.30, encompasses "Other" power transmission belts and belting of textile material, specifically those that are not classified as V-belts or synchronous belts. These are durable textile articles designed for the efficient transfer of power in machinery and industrial applications. They may be impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with plastics, or reinforced with metal or other materials to enhance their performance and lifespan.

Unlike V-belts (5910.00.10.10), which have a characteristic trapezoidal cross-section designed to wedge into grooved pulleys, and synchronous belts (5910.00.10.20), which feature teeth for positive engagement with pulleys to ensure precise timing, this category covers all other types of power transmission belts. This includes, but is not limited to, flat belts, round belts, and other specialized belt designs that do not fit the specific geometric or functional definitions of V-belts or synchronous belts.

As a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 5910.00.10.30. Classification within this subcategory is determined by the absence of characteristics defining the preceding, more specific categories (V-belts and synchronous belts), while still meeting the broader criteria of textile-based power transmission belting. Careful examination of the belt's cross-sectional shape, the presence or absence of teeth, and its primary intended function in power transfer is crucial for accurate classification.
