Classification follows the fiber that predominates by weight among the synthetic staple fibers present. If polyester staple fiber is the dominant synthetic component, the fabric falls under the polyester subheadings (e.g., 551423). If another synthetic fiber — such as acrylic or nylon — predominates, 551429 applies. A laboratory fiber analysis report is the standard method for resolving ambiguous blends.
Duck weave constructions in this heading — classified under 5514290030 — are typically used in heavy-duty applications such as canvas goods, bags, upholstery, and protective workwear. The tight, plain-weave structure of duck fabric provides abrasion resistance and durability, making it a preferred substrate for industrial and outdoor textile products.
