U.S. imports of rubber- or plastics-coated textile yarns, monofilaments & strip (nes) (SITC 65789) totaled $3.0M in April 2026, traded with 20 countries.
Importers of Rubber- or Plastics-Coated Textile Yarns, Monofilaments & Strip (NES) paid $458K in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 16% on $2.9M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataManmade monofilaments, strip, and textile yarns that have been impregnated, coated, covered, or sheathed with rubber or plastics — and not elsewhere specified — serve as functional inputs in technical textiles, protective clothing, and industrial weaving. The 'not elsewhere specified' qualifier is critical: this heading captures composite yarn constructions that don't fit more specific coated-yarn categories. Fiber type (polyester, nylon, polypropylene), coating material, and the method of application (extrusion coating vs. impregnation) are the classification-relevant variables.

The NES (not elsewhere specified) designation means this heading applies only after ruling out more specific headings for rubber-covered thread, tire cord, and other named coated-yarn categories. A classification analysis should work through the schedule in order, confirming the yarn does not meet the criteria of any more specific provision before defaulting to this residual heading.
Customs authorities may distinguish between yarns where the coating is the essential character versus yarns where the textile substrate predominates. Extrusion-coated monofilaments, impregnated yarns, and surface-coated strip can each present differently under GRI analysis, so technical documentation of the coating process and weight ratio is advisable.
