Last updated: April 2026 dataChopped glass fiber strands at or under 50 mm are a foundational reinforcement input for thermoplastic and thermoset composites, widely used in automotive parts, electrical housings, and construction panels. Imports enter under a single 10-digit line, 7019110000, and Chinese-origin shipments are subject to Section 301 tariffs, making Belgium and Malaysia — the top two suppliers — commercially significant alternatives. Classifiers should distinguish this product from longer chopped strands (over 50 mm), which fall under a separate NESOI subheading, and from rovings or mats, which carry their own headings.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Strands at or below 50 mm classify under HTS 7019110000. Strands exceeding 50 mm fall under the NESOI provisions in heading 701919 (specifically 7019193000), so accurate measurement of strand length at time of import is essential to avoid misclassification.
Yes. Chopped glass fiber strands originating in China are subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers sourcing from Belgium or Malaysia — the leading suppliers to the US market — are not subject to those additional duties, though standard MFN rates still apply.
