Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If certified for special uses like felts or boots

If bleached or chemically treated beyond degreasing
Bleached degreased wool shifts to 5101.21, as it exceeds the 'not processed beyond degreased' limitation.
If actually silk misidentified as wool
Silk fibers, not wool, belong in Chapter 50; material composition determines chapter classification.
