U.S. imports of v-ribbed endless transmission belts, 180–240 cm circumference (HS 401033) totaled $3.2M in August 2026, imported from 29 countries.
Importers of V-Ribbed Endless Transmission Belts, 180–240 cm Circumference paid $236K in duties in August 2026, an effective tariff rate of 7.47% of the $3.2M imported — duty actually collected as a share of that value, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataLarger-circumference V-ribbed belts in the 180–240 cm range are used in heavier automotive platforms — including trucks, SUVs, and some industrial engines — where longer accessory-drive paths require extended belt loops. The US schedule mirrors the structure of the 60–180 cm heading, with lines for textile-reinforced (4010333000) and other constructions (4010336000) alongside a combined legacy line (4010330000). Mexico again leads supply, consistent with its role as the primary North American source for automotive drive belts, with Japan and China also present in the supplier mix.

The HTS uses 'exceeding 60 cm but not exceeding 180 cm' for 401031 and 'exceeding 180 cm but not exceeding 240 cm' for 401033. A belt measuring exactly 180 cm falls within 401031, not 401033. Precise circumference measurement — typically the inner circumference of the finished loop — is essential, and the measurement method should be documented in the entry file.
Duty rates can differ between the textile-reinforced line (4010333000) and the residual line (4010336000). Importers should verify the current Column 1 general rate for each applicable 10-digit line in the HTSUS, as rates are subject to legislative and administrative change, and confirm whether any trade-remedy measures apply to the country of origin.
