Last updated: April 2026 dataRubber inner tubes not elsewhere specified cover applications beyond cars, trucks, buses, and bicycles — most notably motorcycle and moped tubes (4013905010) and a general NESOI line (4013905050), with a separate line for tire inner tubes (4013901000). South Korea and Vietnam lead US supply under this heading, with China also a significant source subject to Section 301 tariffs. The motorcycle tube segment is commercially significant given the global growth in two-wheel transportation, particularly in emerging markets.

The classification hierarchy requires first checking whether the tube is for motor cars, buses, or trucks (401310) or for bicycles (401320). If it fits neither category — for example, a motorcycle, moped, ATV, or specialty equipment tube — it falls under 401390. The intended vehicle application, supported by product specifications and manufacturer documentation, is the key classification criterion.
Within heading 401390, the US schedule specifically carves out motorcycle and moped inner tubes (4013905010) from the broader NESOI category (4013905050). Tubes designed and marketed for motorcycles or mopeds should be classified on the dedicated motorcycle line. Tubes for other non-bicycle, non-automotive applications — such as certain agricultural or industrial equipment — fall on the general NESOI line.
