Raw-material prices
Daily and monthly series for the fibres and feedstocks this class is mostly made from.
The site does not yet track a price for this class’s main materials (polypropylene, glass, aramid and carbon are not in the price register).
US import duty headings
The HTS headings these products usually fall under. Classification turns on the exact product, so read the lines under each heading.
These products fall outside chapters 50 to 63, which is what the tariff register holds.
