5407.71.00.15 - Weighing not more than 170 g/m² (620)

This HTS classification, 5407.71.00.15, specifically covers unbleached or bleached woven fabrics derived from synthetic filament yarn, provided these fabrics weigh no more than 170 grams per square meter. The key characteristic distinguishing this category is the weight limitation. These fabrics are part of the broader group of woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, which itself falls under Chapter 54, encompassing man-made filaments and their products.

The critical differentiating factor from its sibling category, 5407.71.00.60, is the weight per square meter. While both categories deal with unbleached or bleached woven fabrics containing 85% or more synthetic filaments, 5407.71.00.15 is designated for fabrics weighing *up to* 170 g/m², whereas the sibling category is for those weighing *more than* 170 g/m². This precise weight threshold is the primary basis for classification between these two closely related codes.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to subdivide this specific classification. Therefore, the classification of a product under 5407.71.00.15 hinges on it being a woven fabric of synthetic filament yarn, containing 85% or more synthetic filaments by weight, being either unbleached or bleached, and crucially, having a weight that does not exceed 170 grams per square meter. Examples of such fabrics could include lightweight synthetic materials used for linings, certain types of apparel, or home furnishings where a lighter weight is desired.
