5209.51.60.90 - Plain weave duck (219) 🖩

This classification covers cotton fabrics that are plain weave, are printed, and do not fall under the specific "Poplin or broadcloth" or "Sheeting" subheadings. To qualify for this category, the fabric must contain 85% or more cotton by weight and weigh more than 200 grams per square meter. The "plain weave" construction signifies that each weft yarn passes over and under successive warp yarns in a simple interlacing pattern, creating a balanced fabric.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings, "Poplin or broadcloth" and "Sheeting" are also plain weave cotton fabrics meeting the weight and cotton content criteria, but they are defined by specific constructions and yarn counts that result in a finer, smoother finish compared to the broader "duck" fabric. This "Other" category, therefore, captures a wider range of printed plain weave cotton fabrics that do not meet the tighter specifications of poplin, broadcloth, or sheeting.

As this classification is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. The classification ends here, meaning that any printed plain weave cotton fabric of over 200 g/m² weighing 85% or more cotton, that is not poplin, broadcloth, or sheeting, will be classified under this specific HTS code. Examples could include durable cotton canvas used for bags or upholstery that has undergone a printing process, provided it meets all other specified criteria.
