Overview
This HTS classification, 5007.20.00.65, specifically covers woven fabrics composed of 85 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste (excluding noil silk), that are not jacquard woven and are more than 127 centimeters in width. These fabrics are distinguished by their substantial silk content and their width exceeding a defined threshold, setting them apart from narrower silk fabrics within the broader category of "Other woven fabrics, containing 85 percent or more by weight of silk or of silk waste other than noil silk."
Unlike its sibling category, 5007.20.00.85, which also falls under "Other" woven silk fabrics not of jacquard weave but does not specify a width constraint, this classification focuses exclusively on the wider widths. The critical factor for classification here is the precise measurement of the fabric's width, meaning that any woven silk fabric meeting the material composition and weaving pattern requirements, but measuring over 127 cm across, will fall into this specific sub-heading.
As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification into 5007.20.00.65 hinges directly on the combination of material composition (85% or more silk/silk waste other than noil), weaving method (not jacquard woven), and the physical dimension of width being strictly greater than 127 centimeters. Examples would include wide silk broadcloth, satin, or twill fabrics intended for applications such as upholstery, drapery, or large-format garment production.
