Overview
This classification pertains to woven fabrics of cotton, where the cotton content by weight is less than 85%, and these fabrics are primarily or solely blended with man-made fibers. Crucially, these fabrics must not exceed a weight of 200 grams per square meter. The "Of numbers 43 to 68" designation refers to a specific numbering system within this chapter that categorizes yarn counts or threads per unit length, serving as a precise delimiter for classifying these mixed-fiber cotton fabrics.
This category is distinct from its siblings, 5210.29.40 and 5210.29.80. While all three fall under bleached, other woven cotton fabrics not primarily cotton, and then into the "other" sub-classification for these types, they are differentiated by the specific yarn count or thread density. 5210.29.40 covers fabrics with yarn counts of 42 or lower, while 5210.29.80 is for those with yarn counts of 69 or higher. This node, 5210.29.60, therefore, specifically captures fabrics with intermediate yarn counts ranging from 43 up to and including 68.
The subcategories under 5210.29.60 further refine the classification based on the specific weave construction or a residual "other" designation. 5210.29.60.20 is allocated for "Oxford cloth," a distinct type of woven fabric characterized by its basket weave structure. The remaining fabrics within this yarn count range that do not fit the specific description of Oxford cloth are classified under 5210.29.60.90 as "Other." This allows for a granular breakdown of specific fabric types within this intermediate yarn count range.
