5514.19.90.30 - Duck (219) 🖩

This HTS classification covers woven fabrics primarily composed of synthetic staple fibers, but containing less than 85% by weight of these fibers, with a significant cotton component. The total weight of these fabrics must exceed 170 grams per square meter. This specific subcategory, "Duck," refers to a type of fabric characterized by its plain weave construction, often identified by its durability and strength, commonly used in applications like workwear, canvas, and awnings.

Distinguishing this classification from its siblings involves recognizing the specific weave and structural characteristics. For instance, "Poplin or broadcloth" (5514.19.90.10) typically features a finer, smoother weave. "Sheeting" (5514.19.90.20) generally refers to fabrics with a tighter weave, often associated with bedding. "Satin weave or twill weave" (5514.19.90.40) denotes specific weaving patterns that create distinct surface textures and drape. The "Other" categories at this level encompass fabrics that do not fit into the more precisely defined weaves.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification into this specific code hinges on the fabric meeting the criteria for being a "duck" weave, while simultaneously fulfilling the broader requirements of being a woven fabric of synthetic staple fibers (less than 85%), mixed mainly or solely with cotton, and weighing over 170 g/m², unbleached or bleached.
