6117.90.90.70 - Of man-made fibers (648) 🖩

This HTS category, 6117.90.90.70, specifically covers knitted or crocheted parts of garments or clothing accessories that are made from man-made fibers. These parts are not entire garments or finished accessories themselves, but rather components intended for assembly into such items. The "of man-made fibers" designation is the critical determinant for classification within this specific sub-heading, distinguishing it based on material composition.

When classifying parts under 6117.90.90, it is essential to differentiate based on the primary textile material. This category, 6117.90.90.70, exclusively applies to parts where man-made fibers, such as polyester, nylon, acrylic, or rayon, constitute the main component. It stands apart from sibling categories like 6117.90.90.60, which are for parts made of cotton, and 6117.90.90.65, which are for parts composed of wool or fine animal hair. Furthermore, the residual category 6117.90.90.75 is reserved for parts made of other materials not specified elsewhere.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification here hinges directly on the material content of the knitted or crocheted garment part. Examples of items that would fall under this classification include knitted sleeves or collars made from synthetic yarn, intended for a knitted shirt, or crocheted edging made from acrylic for a knitted scarf. The key is that the part itself is made of man-made fibers and is destined for use in apparel or clothing accessories that are themselves knitted or crocheted.
