Overview
This HTS category, 5212.25.60.40, specifically classifies "Duck" fabric within the broader classification of other woven fabrics of cotton. "Duck" is a durable, plain-weave cotton fabric that is typically woven with a warp yarn count that is double the weft yarn count, resulting in a very strong and tightly woven material. It is distinguished by its substantial weight, exceeding 200 g/m², and its decorative printing, placing it under the "Printed" subcategory.
Within the "Other woven fabrics of cotton, weighing more than 200 g/m², printed" level, this category is distinct from its siblings. Specifically, it differs from 5212.25.60.20 (Poplin or broadcloth) and 5212.25.60.30 (Sheeting) by its specific construction and typical applications. It also differs from the "Satin weave or twill weave" sibling category by its plain weave structure.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 5212.25.60.40 is determined by the fabric being identified as "Duck," made of cotton, weighing over 200 g/m², and bearing printed designs. Practical examples include heavy-duty cotton canvas used for workwear, bags, or upholstery that features printed patterns.
