7019.69.90.10 - Weighing 185 grams or less per square meter (622)

This HTS classification, 7019.69.90.10, covers mechanically bonded fabrics made of glass fibers that weigh 185 grams or less per square meter. These fabrics are characterized by their specific weight per unit area, a key factor in distinguishing them within the broader category of mechanically bonded glass fiber fabrics. The "colored" designation indicates that these fabrics may incorporate pigments or dyes, resulting in a non-transparent appearance.

This specific subcategory differentiates itself from its sibling, 7019.69.90.21, primarily by its lower weight per square meter. While 7019.69.90.21 pertains to fabrics weighing more than 215 grams per square meter with a specific filament diameter, this category focuses on lighter weight materials. Furthermore, it is distinct from the "Other" sibling category, 7019.69.90.60, by the specific weight parameter and the "colored" attribute, implying a broader, less specified range for that sibling.

As this classification represents a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, the primary focus for classification under 7019.69.90.10 is ensuring the material is indeed a mechanically bonded glass fiber fabric, that it is colored, and critically, that its weight does not exceed 185 grams per square meter. Examples might include specialized decorative or industrial fabrics where a lighter, colored glass fiber composite is required.
