Last updated: April 2026 dataRosin spirit, rosin oils, run gums, and other rosin and resin acid derivatives not elsewhere classified are processed naval stores products serving as solvents, plasticizers, and binders in coatings, printing inks, and rubber compounding. Brazil leads US import supply under this heading, with Belgium and Mexico also contributing, reflecting both South American pine-chemical production capacity and European specialty chemical refining. All imports currently enter under the single tariff line 3806900000. Buyers should distinguish rosin spirit (a volatile fraction) from rosin oil (a heavier distillate) in purchase specifications, as the two have different flash points and viscosity profiles that affect handling and end-use performance.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Run gums are crude oleoresins collected from pine stumps or aged wood rather than tapped from living trees. They typically have higher impurity levels and darker color grades than gum rosin, making them more suitable for industrial applications such as rubber compounding or low-grade adhesives where color and purity are less critical.
Yes. Rosin spirit is a flammable liquid with a relatively low flash point and is regulated as a hazardous material under DOT rules for both ocean and air freight. Rosin oil, being less volatile, may fall under different hazard classifications. Importers should confirm the flash point and vapor pressure of the specific product with the supplier and ensure the bill of lading and IMDG/IATA documentation reflect the correct UN number and packing group.
