5407.72.00.15 - Weighing not more than 170 g/m² (620)

This HTS category, 5407.72.00.15, classifies woven fabrics manufactured from synthetic filament yarns, specifically those containing 85 percent or more by weight of synthetic filaments. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is that the fabric weighs not more than 170 grams per square meter. These fabrics are also dyed, meaning they have undergone a process to impart color uniformly across their surface. Examples would include lightweight synthetic satins, twills, or plain weaves used in apparel, linings, or home furnishings where a light-to-medium weight is desired.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 5407.72.00.60, primarily by the fabric's weight. While both categories cover dyed woven fabrics of synthetic filaments containing 85% or more synthetic filament by weight, 5407.72.00.15 is specifically for those weighing 170 g/m² or less, indicating a finer, lighter construction. The sibling category is for fabrics exceeding this weight threshold, suggesting a denser or heavier weave.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is determined by the material composition (85%+ synthetic filament), the construction (woven fabric of filament yarn), the color treatment (dyed), and the critical weight metric (not more than 170 g/m²).
