Rubber; vulcanised, endless synchronous belts, of an outside circumference exceeding 60 cm but not exceeding 150 cm

HS v2017 Code: 401035

About rubber; vulcanised, endless synchronous belts, of an outside circumference exceeding 60 cm but not exceeding 150 cm

HS code 401035 covers the import and export of vulcanized rubber, endless synchronous belts with an outside circumference exceeding 60 cm but not exceeding 150 cm. These belts are essential components in a wide range of industrial machinery, including automotive, manufacturing, and agricultural equipment. The global market for these products is driven by the increasing demand for efficient power transmission systems and the need for durable, high-performance components in various industries.

Production process

The production of vulcanized rubber, endless synchronous belts involves several key steps. First, raw rubber is compounded with various additives, such as fillers, accelerators, and vulcanizing agents, to achieve the desired physical and chemical properties. The compound is then extruded or calendered into thin sheets or strips, which are cut and spliced to form the endless belt. Finally, the belt is vulcanized, a process that cross-links the rubber molecules to improve its strength, flexibility, and resistance to wear and tear.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 401035 products include natural and synthetic rubber, textile or metal reinforcing materials, and various chemical additives. Specialized machinery, such as extruders, calenders, and vulcanizing presses, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor and technical expertise are necessary to ensure consistent quality and performance of the final products.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 401035 is vulcanized rubber, endless synchronous belts, which are used in a wide range of industrial applications. These belts are often consumed by manufacturers of 842481 Machinery for liquefying air or gas, 842919 Machinery for working rubber or plastics or for the manufacture of products from these materials, not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter, and 848340 Gears and gearing; ball or roller screws; gear boxes and other speed changers, including torque converters, among others. The demand for these belts is driven by the need for efficient power transmission and the ongoing development of industrial machinery and equipment.
