5208.51.80 - Of number 69 or higher number

This classification, HTS Code 5208.51.80, applies to printed woven fabrics of cotton, where the cotton content by weight is 85% or more, and the fabric weighs not more than 200 g/m². Specifically, this category encompasses fabrics within the "Other" sub-classification for plain weave cotton fabrics weighing not more than 100 g/m².

It is distinguished from its sibling categories by the yarn number. While 5208.51.40 covers fabrics made with yarns of number 42 or lower, and 5208.51.60 includes yarns numbered 43 to 68, this category, 5208.51.80, is for fabrics woven from yarns of number 69 or higher. This indicates a finer thread count and potentially a lighter, more delicate fabric construction.

Within this category, further distinctions are made based on specific fabric types. Subcategory 5208.51.80.20 pertains to poplin or broadcloth, known for their smooth finish and tight weave. Subcategory 5208.51.80.90, conversely, covers other types such as cheesecloth, lawns, voiles, or batistes, which are typically lighter and more open in weave, often used for specialized applications.
