Overview
This HTS category, 4601.93.01.00, specifically classifies "Webbing" manufactured from plaiting materials. Webbing, in this context, refers to a strong, woven or plaited band of material, typically used for structural support, strapping, or decorative purposes in articles such as luggage, furniture, or footwear. It is characterized by its linear construction and interwoven or interlaced plaiting materials.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings, 4601.93.05.00 (Plaits and similar products of plaiting materials, whether or not assembled into strips) and 4601.93.20.00 (Other), is crucial. While plaits and similar products are broader categories that may include individual strands or assembled strips not yet formed into a functional band, and "Other" captures residual items, this specific subheading focuses on the finished form of "webbing" as a distinct functional product. The defining characteristic here is the continuous, band-like structure of interlaced or woven plaiting materials, engineered for tensile strength and application as a component.
As a leaf node, this classification has no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 4601.93.01.00 relies on identifying the material as derived from plaiting materials and its physical form as webbing, suitable for its intended functional use. For instance, rattan webbing, commonly used in chair seats and backs, would fall under this heading.
