7019.69.70.00 - Fiberglass tire cord fabric woven from electrically nonconductive continuous fiberglass filaments 9 microns in diameter to 11 microns in diameter and impregnated with resorcinol formaldehyde latex treatment for adhesion to polymeric compounds (622)

This HTS category, 7019.69.70.00, specifically classifies fiberglass tire cord fabric. This fabric is distinguished by its construction from continuous fiberglass filaments with a specific diameter range (9 to 11 microns) and its impregnation with a resorcinol formaldehyde latex treatment. This treatment is critical for enhancing adhesion to polymeric compounds, a key characteristic for its intended use in tire manufacturing, where it functions as reinforcement. The "electrically nonconductive" property is also a defining technical specification for this specialized textile.

At this level, the category serves as a highly specific designation within the broader classification of "Other mechanically bonded fabrics" of glass fibers. Its sibling, 7019.69.90, covers "Other" mechanically bonded fiberglass fabrics that do not meet the specific criteria of this tire cord fabric category. This implies that 7019.69.90 would encompass other forms of mechanically bonded fiberglass fabrics that are colored but not intended for tire cord applications or lack the specific diameter and treatment requirements outlined here.

As this node is a leaf category in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under this code is on precisely identifying the physical and chemical attributes of the fiberglass fabric as described. This includes verifying the filament diameter, the presence and type of impregnation treatment (resorcinol formaldehyde latex), and the intended application as tire cord, ensuring accurate distinction from more general mechanically bonded fiberglass textiles.
