Nylon 6.6 Multifilament Yarn 840 Decitex Twisted from China

This is a high-tenacity nylon 6.6 multifilament yarn measuring 840 decitex with a twist of 5 turns or more per meter, used primarily in industrial applications like tire cords and ropes. It falls under HTS 5402.19.3030 as it is synthetic multifilament yarn of polyamides, not over 920 decitex, twisted, and not put up for retail sale. The twist exceeds the minimum threshold, distinguishing it from low-twist variants.

Import Tips

• Verify decitex (not exceeding 920) and twist measurement (5+ turns/m) via lab testing to confirm HTS 5402.19.3030 classification

• Provide manufacturer's yarn specifications and end-use declaration to avoid reclassification as sewing thread under Chapter 54 exclusions

• Ensure documentation proves not put up for retail sale; bulk spools only, as retail packaging shifts to Chapter 55
