Overview
This HTS category, 5407.93.15.00, specifically classifies woven fabrics composed primarily of man-made filaments. The defining characteristic for inclusion here is a precise thread count. These fabrics must contain 85 percent or more by weight of man-made filaments, with a warp thread count exceeding 69 but not surpassing 142 threads per centimeter. Concurrently, the filling thread count must fall between more than 31 and not more than 71 threads per centimeter. This detailed thread count requirement, along with the specified filament content, is crucial for accurate classification within this specific sub-item.
This category distinguishes itself from its sibling, 5407.93.20, through the detailed thread count specifications. While both fall under "Of yarns of different colors" and "Other" within the broader category of "Other woven fabrics," 5407.93.15.00 is designated for fabrics meeting the precise warp and filling thread count parameters outlined. Other woven fabrics of different colored yarns that do not meet these specific thread count thresholds would be directed to the sibling category.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification structure, there are no further subcategories for this specific code. Therefore, the classification is complete at this level, and any woven fabric meeting all the specified criteria—85% or more man-made filaments by weight, and the exact thread count range in both warp and filling—will be classified under 5407.93.15.00. Examples of such fabrics could include certain types of satins, twills, or plain weaves made from polyester, nylon, or other synthetic filament yarns that adhere to these stringent thread count requirements.
