5210.31.60 - Of numbers 43 to 68

This HTS category, 5210.31.60, specifically covers dyed woven fabrics of cotton that contain less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibers, and weigh no more than 200 g/m². The key defining characteristic of this group is the inclusion of "numbers 43 to 68" within the yarn count or construction of the fabric, distinguishing it from fabrics with lower or higher yarn counts.

Compared to its siblings, 5210.31.40 and 5210.31.80, this category occupies a specific range of yarn characteristics. Fabrics classified under 5210.31.40 will have yarns numbered 42 or lower, while those under 5210.31.80 will have yarns numbered 69 or higher. This distinction in yarn fineness and density is crucial for accurate tariff application.

Within this classification, further subdivisions exist to provide more granular detail on the specific weave and end-use of the fabric. The subcategories, such as poplin or broadcloth (5210.31.60.20), sheeting (5210.31.60.40), printcloth (5210.31.60.60), and cheesecloth (5210.31.60.90), reflect distinct weaving patterns and common applications, enabling precise identification for trade purposes.
