Class 17 — Rubber Goods

Every entry WIPO publishes for Class 17 (Rubber Goods) in NCL 13-2026: 134 official indications, each with its basic number. Copy wording as printed rather than paraphrasing it — the USPTO ID Manual is built from this same list.

Class 17 of 45 — jump to another class

Updated 2026-10-27

Official class heading

  • Unprocessed and semi-processed rubber, gutta-percha, gum, asbestos, mica and substitutes for all these materials
  • plastics and resins in extruded form for use in manufacture
  • packing, stopping and insulating materials
  • flexible pipes, tubes and hoses, not of metal

Explanatory note

Class 17 includes mainly electrical, thermal and acoustic insulating materials and plastics for use in manufacture in the form of sheets, blocks and rods, as well as certain goods made of rubber, gutta-percha, gum, asbestos, mica or substitutes therefor.

This class includes, in particular

  • rubber material for recapping tyres
  • floating anti-pollution barriers
  • adhesive tapes, other than stationery and not for cosmetic, medical or household purposes
  • plastic films, other than for wrapping and packaging, for example, anti-glare films for windows
  • elastic threads and threads of rubber or plastic, not for textile use
  • certain goods made of the materials in this class not otherwise classified by function or purpose, for example, foam supports for flower arrangements, padding and stuffing materials of rubber or plastics, rubber stoppers, shock-absorbing buffers of rubber, rubber bags or envelopes for packaging

This class does not include, in particular

  • certain goods made of the materials in this class that are classified according to their function or purpose, for example, gum resins (Class 2), rubber for dental purposes (Class 5), asbestos screens for firefighters (Class 9), adhesive rubber patches for repairing inner tubes (Class 12), erasers (Class 16)
  • fire hoses (Class 9)
  • pipes being parts of sanitary installations (Class 11), rigid pipes of metal (Class 6) and not of metal (Class 19)
  • insulating glass for building (Class 19)
