Overview

This HTS classification, specifically 5212.22.60.40, covers "Duck" woven fabrics of cotton. These fabrics are characterized by their plain weave construction, often with a warp and weft of equal or nearly equal numbers of threads, resulting in a strong, durable fabric with a characteristic diagonal rib. This category specifically applies to cotton duck fabrics that weigh more than 200 grams per square meter and have been bleached.

It is important to distinguish this classification from its siblings. While all fall under "Other woven fabrics of cotton, weighing more than 200 g/m², bleached," 5212.22.60.40 is specifically for "Duck" weave. It differs from categories such as Poplin or broadcloth (5212.22.60.20) and Sheeting (5212.22.60.30) which, while also plain weaves, have different thread counts and constructions. It is also distinct from fabrics classified under satin or twill weaves, or the general "Other" category (5212.22.60.90) for bleached cotton fabrics exceeding 200 g/m².

As a leaf node within the HTS database, 5212.22.60.40 does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification under this code is definitive for bleached cotton duck fabrics meeting the specified weight criteria. Examples of goods falling under this classification would include heavy-duty cotton canvas used for applications such as tents, awnings, upholstery, and durable bags, where strength and durability are paramount.
