Overview
This HTS category, 6812.99.10.00, specifically covers paper, millboard, and felt products that are primarily composed of asbestos fibers, or mixtures where asbestos is a principal component along with magnesium carbonate. These materials are typically used for their heat-resistant and insulating properties. The scope extends to articles manufactured from these asbestos-based mixtures, excluding those specifically classified under headings 6811 or 6813.
The distinction between this category and its sibling, 6812.99.20.00, lies in the form and application. While 6812.99.20.00 is reserved for compressed asbestos fiber jointing in sheets or rolls, this category encompasses a broader range of asbestos-based paper, millboard, and felt articles. The sibling category 6812.99.90.00 represents all other remaining "other" articles of asbestos not otherwise specified.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification within 6812.99.10.00 is determined by the specific form and intended use of the asbestos-containing paper, millboard, or felt product, provided it does not fit into more specific sibling categories or related headings. Classification hinges on the material composition and its presentation as a paper, millboard, or felt.
