Rubber; vulcanised, endless synchronous belts, of an outside circumference exceeding 150 cm but not exceeding 198 cm

HS v2022 Code: 401036

About rubber; vulcanised, endless synchronous belts, of an outside circumference exceeding 150 cm but not exceeding 198 cm

HS code 401036 covers the classification of vulcanized rubber, endless synchronous belts with an outside circumference exceeding 150 cm but not exceeding 198 cm. These belts play a crucial role in the efficient operation of various industrial machinery and equipment, ensuring smooth and synchronized power transmission. As a key component in the manufacturing and transportation sectors, the demand for these belts is closely tied to the overall health and growth of the global economy.

Production process

The production of vulcanized rubber, endless synchronous belts involves several key steps. First, raw rubber materials are 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 structure. Finally, the belts undergo a vulcanization process, where they are heated and pressurized to crosslink the rubber molecules, resulting in a durable and flexible product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 401036 products include natural and synthetic rubber, as well as various chemical additives like carbon black, silica, and vulcanizing agents. Specialized machinery, such as extruders, calenders, and vulcanization presses, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor and technical expertise are necessary to ensure the quality and consistency of the final products.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 401036 is vulcanized, endless synchronous belts, which are used in a wide range of industrial applications. These belts are commonly found in 842481 Machinery for lifting, handling, loading or unloading, 842919 Self-propelled bulldozers, angledozers, graders, levellers, scrapers, mechanical shovels, excavators, shovel loaders, tamping machines and road rollers, and 847982 Mixing, kneading, crushing, grinding, screening, sifting, homogenising, emulsifying or stirring machines, among others. The efficient power transmission capabilities of these belts make them an integral component in the smooth operation of various industrial processes and equipment.
