Importers of Shuttle-Type Power Looms for Fabrics Exceeding 30 cm Wide paid $9K in duties in June 2026 — an effective duty rate of 14% on $68K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Shuttle-Type Power Looms for Fabrics Exceeding 30 cm Wide imports of $68K in June 2026 ran 286% above the year-to-date monthly average of $18K.
Shuttle-type power looms for broad fabrics represent an older but still commercially active weaving technology, where a shuttle carries the weft yarn across the shed — a mechanism that limits speed compared to shuttleless alternatives but remains valued for certain specialty and heavy-fabric applications. Three 10-digit lines exist under this heading (8446210000, 8446211000, 8446215000), and correct classification among them depends on technical specifications provided by the manufacturer. Sweden and Italy are the leading US suppliers, with Germany and Switzerland also present — a supplier profile reflecting European manufacturers who have maintained shuttle-loom production for niche markets. Buyers of used shuttle looms should be aware that the same tariff lines apply to refurbished equipment.

Shuttle looms remain in use for specific fabric constructions — such as selvedge denim, heavy industrial fabrics, and certain traditional textiles — where the shuttle's weft-insertion method produces a self-finished edge or a fabric structure that shuttleless machines cannot replicate. Some specialty apparel and technical-textile producers specifically require shuttle-woven fabric.
The importer should obtain the manufacturer's technical specification sheet identifying the loom's rated width capacity, drive mechanism, and any distinguishing features. CBP may request this documentation during review, and a binding ruling is advisable when the specifications place the machine near a classification boundary between the three available 10-digit lines.
