6310.90.20.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 6310.90.20.00, encompasses "Other" made up textile articles, specifically within the broader scope of used or new rags, scrap twine, cordage, rope, and cables, as well as worn-out articles made from these materials. This classification is designated for items that do not fit into more specific categories within heading 6310. The key characteristic is that the articles are composed of textile materials and are either waste products, remnants, or no longer in their original functional state.

The distinction of this category from its sibling, 6310.90.10.00 (Of wool or fine animal hair), lies primarily in the material composition. While 6310.90.10.00 specifically targets rags, scrap, or worn-out articles made from wool or fine animal hair, this category, 6310.90.20.00, captures all other textile materials not falling under that specific hair classification. Therefore, this category would include items made from cotton, synthetic fibers, or other vegetable fibers when they meet the criteria of rags, scrap, or worn-out textile cordage and cable.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 6310.90.20.00 is definitive once an item is determined to be a textile rag, scrap, or worn-out article of twine, cordage, rope, or cable, and it is not specifically classifiable under the "wool or fine animal hair" sibling category. Examples might include shredded cotton rags used for industrial cleaning, discarded synthetic ropes, or frayed nylon cables that are no longer serviceable.
