Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 560750 when importing or exporting ropes and cables made from synthetic fibers, excluding polyethylene or polypropylene. For example, a shipment of nylon ropes used in marine applications would fall under this code.

This code specifically covers twine, cordage, ropes, and cables that are made from synthetic fibers, which can be plaited or braided and may be treated with rubber or plastics. It differs from HS-6 560740, which includes similar products made from polyethylene and polypropylene.

When dealing with products classified under this line, ensure that the synthetic fibers are not polyethylene or polypropylene. Products like polyester ropes for climbing or fishing nets made from nylon would be included here.

If you're unsure whether your product fits this classification, consider its material composition and intended use. For instance, a polyester cable used for securing loads would be classified under this HS-6 code.
