Last updated: April 2026 dataTire cord fabric — woven from high-tenacity yarns of nylon (polyamide), polyester, or viscose rayon — is a precision-engineered reinforcement material embedded in passenger, truck, and specialty tire carcasses. The high-tenacity specification is not incidental: standard-tenacity yarns of the same fiber type do not qualify for this heading, making yarn denier, tenacity rating, and weave construction the critical classification variables. Imports of tire cord fabric may be subject to Section 301 tariffs depending on origin, and buyers should verify current trade-remedy exposure before contracting.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The yarns must be of high tenacity — a defined performance threshold above standard textile yarn — and must be of nylon (polyamide), polyester, or viscose rayon fiber. Fabrics woven from standard-tenacity yarns of the same fibers, or from other fiber types, do not qualify and must be classified elsewhere.
Mill test certificates or technical datasheets from the manufacturer specifying yarn tenacity in centinewtons per tex (cN/tex) or grams per denier (g/d) are the standard supporting documents. Customs may request these to confirm the high-tenacity threshold is met, particularly when the fabric could otherwise be classified as a general industrial woven fabric.
