Overview

This HTS category, 5902.20.00.00, specifically classifies tire cord fabric manufactured from high tenacity polyester yarns. These fabrics are engineered for exceptional strength and durability, making them essential components in the construction of tires for various vehicles. The key characteristic defining this classification is the primary material used in the high tenacity yarn: polyester.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by its exclusive focus on polyester as the base material for the high tenacity yarns. HTS code 5902.10.00.00 covers similar tire cord fabrics but specifies yarns made of nylon or other polyamides. The remaining sibling, 5902.90.00.00, acts as a residual category for tire cord fabrics made from other materials not falling under the polyester or polyamide specifications.

As a leaf node, this classification has no further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes is on confirming that the fabric is indeed tire cord fabric, made from high tenacity yarns, and that those yarns are predominantly composed of polyester. The presence of any other fibers in minor quantities would generally not alter the classification as long as polyester remains the principal component and the fabric's intended use remains for tire reinforcement.
