Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 701966 when importing or exporting open woven glass fabrics that exceed 30 cm in width. For instance, if you're shipping a roll of glass fiber fabric used in construction, this code applies.
This HS-6 line specifically covers open woven glass fabrics, which are often used for insulation or reinforcement in various applications. In contrast, HS-6 701967 covers similar glass fibers but focuses on narrower woven fabrics.
