Polyester High Tenacity Cabled Yarn 840D/2

This is a high tenacity polyester yarn where two 840 denier filaments are cabled together, used primarily for industrial applications like tire cords and conveyor belts. It falls under HTS 5402.20.60.00 because it is multiple (cabled) synthetic high tenacity polyester yarn, not put up for retail sale, with filaments less than 67 decitex. The cabling process twists multiple strands to enhance strength for demanding uses.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

5402Same rate: 17.5%

If not cabled or multiple (single strand)

Single high tenacity polyester yarns without folding or cabling classify under unplied versions in the same subheading.

5503.20.00Higher: 39.3% vs 17.5%

If in staple fiber form rather than continuous filament

High tenacity polyester in discontinuous staple fibers falls under Chapter 55, not continuous filament yarns of Chapter 54.

5402.62.00.00Higher: 42.5% vs 17.5%

If lower tenacity, textured polyester yarn

Non-high tenacity polyester filament yarns, of 67+ decitex, classify separately even if cabled.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify denier and cabling specifications in supplier documentation to confirm classification under high tenacity polyester cabled yarn

Obtain mill test certificates proving high tenacity properties (>7 g/denier) to avoid reclassification to lower tenacity categories

Ensure yarn is not packaged for retail sale; bulk spools only, as retail packaging shifts to Chapter 55
