Overview
This HTS category, 5509.62.00.00, covers yarns that are spun from synthetic staple fibers, specifically those of acrylic or modacrylic fibers. Crucially, these yarns must be predominantly or exclusively blended with cotton to fall under this classification. The yarn is not intended for retail sale, indicating its use in further manufacturing processes.
It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 5509.61.00.00, which also pertains to acrylic or modacrylic staple fiber yarns. The key differentiator lies in the blending component: 5509.61.00.00 is for yarns blended mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair, whereas 5509.62.00.00 is specifically for blends with cotton. The term "mixed mainly or solely with cotton" emphasizes a high cotton content, dictating the classification.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to explore. Classification under 5509.62.00.00 is definitive based on the material composition (acrylic/modacrylic staple fibers and predominantly/solely cotton) and its form (yarn not put up for retail sale). For practical classification, a precise determination of the percentage of cotton in the blend is essential to confirm it meets the "mainly or solely" criteria.
