U.S. imports of printed non-polyester synthetic staple fiber woven fabrics, mixed with cotton, max 170 g/m² (HS 551349) totaled $2K in April 2026, traded with 7 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataPrinted woven fabrics made from non-polyester synthetic staple fibers — such as acrylic, nylon, or viscose — blended with cotton at under 85% synthetic content by weight and not exceeding 170 g/m² are classified here. Pakistan is the leading US supplier, with Italy and El Salvador also among the top sources; India and Hong Kong round out the primary supply base. The US schedule is notably detailed, with separate 10-digit lines covering plain-weave oxford cloth (5513492040), other plain-weave constructions (5513492090), satin/twill weaves (5513499050), and other weave types (5513499090), requiring importers to identify both fiber type and weave structure for accurate classification.

Oxford cloth is a basket-weave variant of plain weave with distinct structural and commercial characteristics, widely used in shirting and apparel. The US tariff schedule calls it out separately (5513492040) to enable more precise trade monitoring of this commercially significant construction. Importers should confirm with the mill whether the fabric's weave qualifies as oxford before selecting the appropriate 10-digit line.
When the fabric contains a blend of synthetic fiber types, classification depends on which synthetic fiber predominates by weight. If polyester staple fiber is the dominant synthetic component (even if under 85% of total fabric weight), the fabric classifies under the polyester-specific headings (e.g., 551341). If another synthetic fiber such as acrylic predominates among the synthetic components, classification falls under 551349. A fiber analysis report from the mill is essential to resolve this.
