Last updated: April 2026 dataAcrylic, nylon, and other non-polyester synthetic staple fiber blends with cotton, in dyed form and weighing more than 170 g/m², are classified here — a heading where India and Italy jointly dominate US supply, pointing to both volume commodity trade and premium specialty fabric sourcing. The US schedule offers six 10-digit lines (5514290000, 5514290010, 5514290020, 5514290030, 5514290040, and 5514290090), differentiated by weave type including plain/back constructions, sheeting, duck, satin/twill, and other weaves. France's presence among top suppliers further underscores the specialty-fabric character of a portion of this trade.

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.
