5210.41.60.00 - Of numbers 43 to 68 (218) 🖩

This HTS category, 5210.41.60.00, specifically classifies woven cotton fabrics that contain less than 85 percent by weight of cotton, and are mixed primarily or solely with man-made fibers. These fabrics must not exceed a weight of 200 grams per square meter and are characterized by the use of yarns of different colors to create their pattern. The "Of numbers 43 to 68 (218)" designation refers to the yarn count, a critical metric in defining the fineness of the threads used in the fabric's construction.

The distinguishing feature of this subcategory lies in the yarn count. It differentiates itself from its sibling category, 5210.41.40.00, which covers fabrics made with yarns of a lower count (42 or lower). Conversely, it is distinct from 5210.41.80.00, which includes fabrics woven with yarns of a higher count (69 or higher). Therefore, the precise yarn count is the sole determinant for classifying a fabric within these specific sibling branches, assuming all other criteria such as fiber content, weight, and weaving method are met.

As this classification represents a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. The classification is complete once the fabric meets all the preceding criteria, including being of woven cotton, less than 85% cotton by weight, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibers, weighing not more than 200 g/m², constructed from yarns of different colors, and woven in a plain weave with a yarn count falling within the range of 43 to 68. Examples of such fabrics could include certain types of lightweight shirting or apparel fabrics where color is introduced through the use of differently dyed warp and weft yarns within this specified yarn count range.
