About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 5402.11.60.00, specifically classifies high tenacity yarn of nylon or other polyamides, of aramids, that is presented in a multiple (folded) or cabled form, and is not intended for retail sale. The defining characteristics are the material (aramid fibers), the high tenacity property (indicating strength and resistance to breaking), and the physical construction of the yarn (folded or cabled).

This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 5402.11.30, which covers single yarns of aramids. The critical differentiator lies in the yarn structure: 5402.11.30 applies to yarns consisting of a single strand, whereas 5402.11.60.00 applies to yarns where two or more single strands have been twisted together (folded) or further twisted (cabled). This structural difference impacts the yarn's properties and potential applications.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS system, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification at this level is determined by the definitive combination of high tenacity aramid material, the folded or cabled construction, and its presentation not for retail sale, aligning with the broader scope of synthetic filament yarns as defined in Chapter 54.
