Overview

This HTS classification covers specialized cloth made from copper wire, specifically Fourdrinier wires. These are crucial components in papermaking machines, used to form the paper sheet during the manufacturing process. The defining characteristic for this classification is the density of the weave, requiring 94 or more wires per lineal centimeter. The classification applies whether the Fourdrinier wires are seamed (joined together) or not seamed.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 7419.80.06 (Other), is the specific technical requirement of wire density for papermaking machinery. While other copper cloths, grills, or netting might exist, this subcategory is narrowly defined by its application and construction precisely for the demanding environment of paper production, evidenced by the high wire count.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within this specific HTS code. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on meeting the described physical characteristics: being a cloth of copper wire, suitable for papermaking machines, and possessing a minimum of 94 wires per lineal centimeter.
