HS-6 · Subheading
681512
Stone or other mineral substances not elsewhere specified or included; fabrics of carbon fibres for non-electrical uses
Heading 6815 — Stone or other mineral substances; articles thereof (including carbon fibres, articles of carbon fibres and articles of peat), not elsewhere specified or included
Chapter 68: Articles of stone, plaster, cement
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 681512 when importing or exporting stone or mineral-based fabrics that aren't classified elsewhere, such as carbon fiber textiles for non-electrical applications. For example, if you're shipping carbon fiber fabric used in automotive parts, this code applies.
This HS-6 line specifically covers fabrics made from stone or other mineral substances, including carbon fibers, that are not specified in other categories. It differs from HS-6 681511, which includes similar fabrics but may have different specifications or uses.
When considering HS-6 681512, think about products like carbon fiber sheets or woven textiles that are used in construction or manufacturing. These materials are often lightweight and strong, making them ideal for various applications.
If you’re unsure whether to use this code, compare it with nearby codes under HS-4 6815. For instance, HS-6 681519 covers other mineral fabrics not specified, which may include different types of fibers or materials.
