Overview
This HTS classification, 5212.21.60.40, pertains to "Duck" fabrics woven from cotton. These are characterized as "other woven fabrics of cotton" that are unbleached and weigh more than 200 grams per square meter. The term "duck" in this context typically refers to a durable, plain-weave cotton fabric that is tightly woven.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings, "Poplin or broadcloth" (5212.21.60.20) and "Sheeting" (5212.21.60.30), is crucial. Poplin and broadcloth often feature a finer weave and a distinct ribbing effect, while sheeting is generally a lighter weight fabric. The "Other" categories at this level, including 5212.21.60.90, encompass woven cotton fabrics meeting the weight and unbleached criteria that do not fit the specific weave patterns of poplin, broadcloth, sheeting, or the duck fabric described here.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into 5212.21.60.40 depends on the fabric meeting the precise definition of "duck" weave, as well as the established criteria of being an unbleached woven cotton fabric exceeding 200 g/m² and not falling under more specific weave descriptions at the same level. Practical examples of goods that might be classified here include heavy-duty canvas, sailcloth, or durable workwear fabrics, provided they meet all the stated physical and material characteristics.
