Overview
This classification pertains to woven fabrics of carded wool or fine animal hair that weigh not more than 400 grams per square meter. These fabrics are characterized by their weight and the fact that they are derived from carded wool or fine animal hair. Carding is a mechanical process that disentangles and aligns fibers, preparing them for spinning into yarn. The "fine animal hair" designation typically includes fibers like cashmere, mohair, and alpaca.
This specific category is distinguished from its sibling, 5111.19.60.40, primarily by the weight of the fabric. While both are woven fabrics of carded wool or fine animal hair containing 85 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair, and are classified under "Other" and "Other" subheadings, this code specifically applies to those weighing *not more than* 400 g/m². The sibling category covers fabrics exceeding this weight threshold.
As this HTS code is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into this category hinges directly on meeting the criteria of being a woven fabric of carded wool or carded fine animal hair, containing at least 85% wool or fine animal hair by weight, and having a weight that does not exceed 400 grams per square meter. Examples would include lightweight wool suiting, apparel linings, or decorative fabrics where the primary fiber content and weight per unit area align with these specifications.
