Polyester High Tenacity Cabled Yarn 840D/2 from Mexico
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.

Import Tips
• 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
