Overview

This HTS category, 5511.10.00.60, encompasses yarns of synthetic staple fibers, containing 85 percent or more by weight of such fibers, that are specifically put up for retail sale. These yarns are typically used in the creation of textiles and garments. The "Other" designation at this level indicates that it includes all synthetic staple fiber yarns meeting the criteria of the parent heading and subheadings that are not specifically categorized elsewhere within this group.

This classification distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 5511.10.00.30, which specifically covers acrylic or modacrylic yarns meeting the same weight and retail sale criteria. Therefore, 5511.10.00.60 serves as a residual category for all other synthetic staple fiber yarns suitable for retail sale that do not fall under the acrylic or modacrylic classification. This allows for a comprehensive capture of such yarns, ensuring accurate tariff application.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification ends at this point, meaning any yarn that fits the description of containing 85 percent or more synthetic staple fibers by weight, is put up for retail sale, and is not of acrylic or modacrylic origin would be classified under this code. Examples might include polyester staple fiber yarn or nylon staple fiber yarn sold in skeins, balls, or on spools for consumer use.
