5911.31.00.80 - Other

This classification, HTS 5911.31.00.80, encompasses "Other" textile fabrics and felts that are endless or fitted with linking devices, specifically designed for use in papermaking or similar machines, and weigh less than 650 g/m². These articles, suitable for industrial purposes as outlined in Chapter 59, are distinguished by their weight falling below the specified threshold.

Within the context of fabrics weighing less than 650 g/m², this residual category serves to classify items not specifically enumerated under the sibling categories of "Press felts," "Dryer felts and dryer fabrics," or "Paper-forming fabrics." Therefore, it captures specialized textile articles meeting the general criteria but not fitting the more precise descriptions of the other subdivisions.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification hinges on the affirmative criteria of being an endless or fitted textile fabric for papermaking machinery, weighing under 650 g/m², and not being classifiable as a press felt, dryer felt/fabric, or paper-forming fabric. Examples might include certain specialized screening fabrics or support textiles for specific stages of the paper manufacturing process that do not align with the primary functional descriptions of the other categories.
