9902.12.29 - Conveyor belting of vulcanized rubber, reinforced with textile components in which man-made fibers predominate by weight over any other single textile fiber, of a width exceeding 120 cm but not over 171 cm (provided for in subheading 4010.12.50)

This HTS classification, 9902.12.29, falls under Chapter 99, which deals with temporary legislation and special provisions. Specifically, it covers conveyor belting manufactured from vulcanized rubber and reinforced with textile components. A key defining characteristic is that man-made fibers must predominate by weight over any other single textile fiber within the reinforcement. Furthermore, the belting must be of a specific width, exceeding 120 cm but not exceeding 171 cm. This category is established as a temporary modification, referencing its provision under subheading 4010.12.50 within the permanent tariff structure.

Because Chapter 99 encompasses temporary and special provisions, this category is distinct from the primary product-based classifications found in Chapters 1 through 97. While related products like general conveyor belting would typically be classified under Chapter 40 (Rubber and articles thereof), this specific HTS code introduces a temporary modification or restriction. Therefore, it does not have direct siblings in the traditional sense of other product categories at this level; instead, its siblings would be other temporary or special provisions within Chapter 99, each addressing distinct goods or trade scenarios.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification database, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 9902.12.29 is final based on meeting all the specified criteria: material composition (vulcanized rubber with predominant man-made fiber reinforcement) and precise width dimensions (120 cm < width ≤ 171 cm). Importers must ensure their product precisely matches these specifications and any associated documentation or declarations required by the temporary legislation under which this code is established.
