5205.47.00.29 - Other (301) 🖩

This HTS classification, 5205.47.00.29, pertains to specific types of cotton yarn that are not intended for retail sale. It specifically covers multiple (folded) or cabled yarn spun from combed cotton fibers. Crucially, the yarn must measure per single strand between 83.33 and 106.38 decitex, which corresponds to a metric count exceeding 94 but not exceeding 120. The term "ring spun" indicates the spinning method used to produce these yarns, which generally results in stronger and more uniform threads compared to other spinning techniques.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 5205.47.00.21, by the method of spinning. While both classifications deal with multiple or cabled yarn of combed cotton fibers within the same decitex range, 5205.47.00.21 specifically covers "compact" spun yarn, suggesting a more advanced spinning technology that produces an even more concentrated and smoother yarn structure. Therefore, the key differentiator lies in the spinning technology employed, with 5205.47.00.29 encompassing other ring-spun variations within the defined decitex range.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The "Other (301)" designation signifies that this category captures all remaining types of ring-spun, multiple or cabled cotton yarn composed of combed fibers, falling within the specified decitex range, that do not qualify for the more specific "compact" spun classification. This ensures comprehensive coverage for this segment of cotton yarn within the broader chapter on cotton.
