5007.20.00.15 - Measuring less than 77 cm in width or less than 77 cm between selvages, with more than 47 warp yarns per cm, of a kind for use in the manufacture of neckties

This HTS classification covers specific printed woven fabrics of silk or silk waste, characterized by their narrow width or selvage measurement of less than 77 cm, and a high warp yarn density exceeding 47 yarns per centimeter. Crucially, these fabrics are designated for use in the manufacture of neckties, a key factor in their classification. The "printed" designation signifies that a design or pattern has been applied to the fabric through any printing process.

The primary distinction of this category lies in its specific application for neckties, combined with precise physical characteristics. While other "printed" woven fabrics of silk or silk waste might exist, this particular sub-classification is reserved for those meeting the stringent width and yarn count requirements and explicitly intended for necktie production. This differentiates it from broader categories that might include fabrics for other apparel or home furnishings.

As a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under HTS 5007.20.00.15. Therefore, classification at this level is definitive based on meeting all the specified criteria: material content (85% or more silk or silk waste other than noil), printing, narrow width, high warp yarn count, and intended end-use in necktie manufacturing.
