Heavyweight Dyed Cotton Canvas Tarp
A durable, dyed cotton canvas fabric weighing over 200 g/m² used for tarpaulins and protective covers. It falls under HTS 5212.23.60.90 as a woven cotton fabric that is dyed, exceeds the weight threshold, and does not meet criteria for specific subcategories like denim or certified hand-loomed. The plain weave and heavy weight make it ideal for outdoor applications.
