Rubber Rolls

For classification details and shipping requirements of rubber rolls, visit the HTS database. Learn about tariffs and compliance standards for international shipments.

Rubber rolls fall under HTS code 3919.10.20, which outlines specific duties and regulations for raw rubber products.

- **Storage Size/Dimensions**: Minimum 200 sq ft, with dimensions of 20ft x 10ft. Height clearance: 12 feet is recommended for optimal storage. Allow for a 3ft aisle space between storage locations. - **Storage Conditions**: The storage area should be dry and well-ventilated. Ensure the floor is level and clean to prevent damage to the rubber rolls. Avoid direct sunlight exposure. - **Special Handling**: Rubber rolls are considered a fragile item. Each roll should be individually padded with protective foam or bubble wrap during storage. Utilize corner protectors to safeguard against damage during stacking. - **Stacking/Shelving**: Pallet storage is ideal, utilizing 48” high shelving units. Max stack height of 3 rolls per pallet is advised. Consider using narrow aisle racking to maximize space efficiency. - **Access Requirements**: A loading dock with a 12ft x 10ft door is required. The door width needs to be at least 8ft for easy access. A minimum clearance of 10ft within the loading dock is necessary for forklift maneuverability. Utilize a forklift capable of lifting at least 500 lbs per roll.

Protect rolls with individual padding, corner protectors, and secure shelving. Avoid moisture exposure and ensure proper ventilation to prevent degradation.

Use pallets with reinforced corners and shrink wrap for transport. Ensure stacks are stable and labeled for safe handling during transit.

Plan for 35ft loading docks and forklift access. Include climate-controlled storage options to maintain material integrity during transit.

Shipping costs depend on storage space, loading dock size, and handling complexity. Optimize efficiency with proper packaging and compliance to reduce expenses.
