Last updated: September 2026 dataWoven fabrics built from synthetic staple fibers other than polyester — such as acrylic, nylon, or viscose — in blends with cotton at under 85% synthetic content by weight occupy this heading when unbleached or bleached and not exceeding 170 g/m². Pakistan is the leading US supplier, with Italy and China also prominent sources. The US tariff schedule subdivides this heading by end-use construction type, including plain/basket weave (5513190010), sheeting (5513190020), and other constructions (5513190090). Correct fiber identification is essential because misidentifying the synthetic component as polyester would shift classification to a different heading entirely.

The key distinction is the type of synthetic staple fiber: 551313 covers polyester staple fiber blends, while 551319 covers all other synthetic staple fibers (e.g., acrylic, nylon, viscose) blended with cotton. Both require the synthetic component to be under 85% by weight and the fabric to be unbleached or bleached at not over 170 g/m².
Italy is a significant source of specialty woven fabrics using non-polyester synthetics such as viscose or nylon blended with cotton, often targeting higher-end apparel and furnishing markets. Its presence alongside volume suppliers like Pakistan reflects the range of quality tiers imported under this heading.
