Dear Mr. Vander Yacht:
In your letter dated November 27, 1991, you requested a
tariff classification ruling on behalf of your client Dinoflex
Mfg. Ltd.
The Speckled Reclaimed Rubber Mats are composed of 85
percent recycled tire and industrial waste rubber, and 13.5
percent virgin EDPM rubber granules with a polyurethane binder.
The mats measure 36 inches by 36 inches and the thickness ranges
from 1/8 inch to 3/4 inch. The applicable HTS subheading for
the Speckled Reclaimed Rubber Mats will be , Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
4003..00.0000. The rate will be duty free.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have already been filed, this ruling should be brought
to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
