5101.11.60.30 - Not finer than 58s

This HTS category, 5101.11.60.30, specifically classifies shorn wool that is greasy (including fleece-washed wool) and is *not finer than 58s* in terms of its fiber diameter. This designation refers to wool that has a coarser staple length, generally falling within a certain micron range that is coarser than what is classified as "finer than 58s." The wool in this category is in its raw state, having not yet undergone carding or combing.

The key distinguishing factor for this classification is the fiber fineness, measured in "s" counts. While sibling categories may encompass wool of a similar raw, greasy, and shorn state, their classification hinges on whether the wool is finer or not finer than the 58s benchmark. Therefore, importers and exporters must accurately determine the micron count or equivalent grading to ensure correct classification under 5101.11.60.30 when the wool's fineness is 58s or coarser.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is definitive at this level based on the raw state of the wool (greasy, shorn) and its fiber fineness (not finer than 58s). Examples of wool falling into this category would include certain types of carpet wool or coarser apparel wools where the fiber diameter meets the specified criterion.
