HS v2022 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 made up of multiple individual strands twisted together. This type of yarn is commonly used in the manufacture of various textile products, including apparel, home furnishings, and industrial applications, making it an important component of the global textile supply chain.
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, ensuring a high-quality input material. The combed fibers are then spun into individual yarn strands, which are subsequently twisted together to create the multiple or cabled yarn structure. This process is carefully controlled to maintain the desired decitex (fineness) and metric number (yarn count) specifications outlined in the code description.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of HS code 520643 cotton yarn include high-quality combed cotton fibers, spinning machinery, and various auxiliary materials such as lubricants and sizing agents. The spinning equipment used in this process typically includes draw frames, roving frames, and ring spinning frames, all of which must be maintained and operated with precision to ensure consistent yarn quality.
Production outputs
The primary output of HS code 520643 is the cotton yarn itself, which is then used as an input for a wide range of textile products. This yarn may be consumed by manufacturers of 520942 Woven fabrics of cotton, containing less than 85% by weight of cotton, mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibres, weighing more than 200 g/m², 540752 Woven fabrics of yarn containing 85% or more by weight of textured polyester filaments, including woven fabrics obtained from materials of heading 5404, and 580121 Woven pile fabrics and chenille fabrics, other than fabrics of heading 5802 or 5806, of cotton, among others.
