U.S. imports of Endless Synchronous Belts, 60–150 cm Circumference (HS 401035) totaled $2.0M in August 2026, imported from 39 countries.
Importers of Endless Synchronous Belts, 60–150 cm Circumference paid $274K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 13.87% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataSynchronous (timing) belts in the 60–150 cm circumference range use toothed profiles to transmit power at precise speed ratios without slip, making them essential in automotive camshaft drives, robotics, printing machinery, and precision industrial equipment. Germany and Japan lead US supply, reflecting the engineering-intensive nature of synchronous belt manufacturing and the dominance of European and Japanese OEM suppliers in precision drive systems. The US schedule subdivides this heading by textile fiber type and belt width across six 10-digit lines, requiring both a fiber-composition certificate and a width measurement to classify correctly.

If the belt's reinforcement combines textile materials with other elements (such as fiberglass or aramid cord), it would fall under the 'other than textile' residual line 4010359000 rather than the textile-specific lines, unless the textile component is predominant by the applicable classification rule. Importers should obtain a detailed construction specification from the manufacturer and, if classification is uncertain, consider a binding ruling request.
The US schedule separates man-made-fiber synchronous belts wider than 20 cm (4010354100) from those not exceeding 20 cm (4010354500). This distinction can affect the applicable duty rate, so importers must measure the finished belt width and confirm it against the correct 10-digit line before filing entry.
