5402.32.60.00 - Multiple (folded) or cabled yarn (600)

This HTS category, 5402.32.60.00, specifically covers multiple (folded) or cabled synthetic filament yarn, made from nylon or other polyamides, which exceeds 500 decitex per single yarn. This classification is for yarn that is not put up for retail sale. The key characteristic differentiating it from its sibling, 5402.32.30.00, is the construction: this code is for yarn that has been twisted together (folded or cabled), whereas the sibling is for single yarns.

The "multiple (folded) or cabled yarn" designation is crucial for proper classification. It signifies yarn that has undergone a process of twisting two or more single yarns together to form a stronger, more complex yarn structure. This often results in a yarn with improved tensile strength and different handling characteristics compared to a single yarn. Examples within this category would include twisted nylon cords or cabled polyamide yarns intended for industrial use or further manufacturing, rather than direct consumer sale.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 5402.32.60.00. Classification decisions at this level will therefore hinge on confirming the material (nylon or other polyamides), the form (multiple, folded, or cabled yarn), the decitex measurement (exceeding 500 decitex per single yarn), and the presentation (not put up for retail sale).
