About HS Code 520641

This HS code pertains to multiple or cabled cotton yarn, not for retail, made from combed fibres, with cotton content less than 85% by weight, and a coarse count of 714.29 decitex or more (not exceeding 14 metric number) per single yarn. These industrial-grade blended yarns are valued for their strength, uniformity, and reduced impurities due to the combing process, even at a coarser count. They are essential for manufacturers requiring robust yet refined yarns for durable fabrics. Importers include textile mills producing heavy-duty textiles, while exporters are typically large-scale yarn manufacturers with advanced combing capabilities. The blend with other fibers enhances properties like abrasion resistance and dimensional stability, making it suitable for demanding applications where quality and performance are paramount.
