Dear Mr. Kest: In your letter dated September 2, 1994, you requested a tariff classification ruling, on behalf of your client, Munksjo Paper, for certain paper grades to be imported into the U.S. in large rolls. The grades are described as "pure kraft quality, ordered in thicknesses of .0055 inches and .0065 inches caliper, for use in wrapping cables". Samples were submitted, which have been analyzed by the Customs Laboratory. The grade, ".0055", is reported by the laboratory as being 0.14mm thick, weighing 121.1 grams per square meter, composed of chemical kraft pulp fibers, uncoated, having an ash of 0.4% and a Mullen bursting strength of 715 kpa.

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents are filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction. Sincerely, Jean F. Maguire Area Director New York Seaport
