HS v2017 Code: 520643

About cotton yarn; (not sewing thread), multiple or cabled, of combed fibres, less than 85% by weight of cotton, 232.55 to 192.31 decitex (44 to 52 metric number) per single yarn, not for retail sale

HS code 520643 covers a specific type of cotton yarn that is widely used in the textile industry. This yarn is produced from combed cotton fibers, with a weight composition of less than 85% cotton. It is a multiple or cabled yarn, meaning it is composed of multiple strands twisted together, and it falls within a specific range of linear density, measured in decitex. This type of yarn is primarily used as an input for further textile manufacturing processes, rather than being sold directly to consumers.

Production process

The production of HS code 520643 cotton yarn involves several key steps. First, the raw cotton fibers are combed to align and remove any impurities. The combed fibers are then spun into individual yarn strands, which are then twisted together to form the multiple or cabled yarn structure. The resulting yarn is then wound onto bobbins or cones, ready for further processing or sale to textile manufacturers.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 520643 cotton yarn include raw cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and cabling/twisting equipment. The cotton fibers must meet specific quality and length requirements to be suitable for this type of yarn production. Additionally, the spinning and cabling machines need to be properly maintained and calibrated to ensure the yarn meets the required specifications for linear density and other physical properties.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 520643 is the cotton yarn itself, which is then used as an input for a variety of textile manufacturing processes. This yarn may be woven or knitted into fabrics, or used in the production of other textile products such as 520942 Cotton fabrics, woven, containing less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibres, weighing more than 200 g/m² or 620342 Men's or boys' trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts, of cotton, not knitted or crocheted.
