5402.20.60.00 - Multiple (folded) or cabled (606) 🖩

This HTS category, 5402.20.60.00, specifically covers high tenacity yarn of polyesters that is either multiple (folded) or cabled. These yarns are characterized by their exceptional tensile strength, making them suitable for demanding applications. Unlike single yarn (5402.20.30), which consists of a single strand, the yarns classified here have been twisted together to form a more robust and complex structure, either by doubling multiple strands (folded) or by twisting folded strands together (cabled).

The yarns in this classification are not intended for direct retail sale. Their primary use is as a component in the manufacture of other goods, such as industrial fabrics, tire cord, ropes, and nets, where their high tenacity is critical. The "multiple (folded) or cabled" designation is a key differentiator, indicating a yarn structure that is more advanced than a simple single strand and is designed for enhanced performance.

As a leaf node within the HTS structure, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the definitive characteristics of high tenacity polyester yarn that is either folded or cabled, and not put up for retail sale. Understanding these structural attributes and the intended industrial application is crucial for accurate classification under this code.
