## How to choose
- Is the fabric made from cotton, polyester, or similar common textiles? → 5407,5408
- Does it resist high heat or fire and feel stiff or rigid? → 7019.6X,7019.7X
## Overlaps & pitfalls
A curtain could technically be both textile and fire-resistant if treated with flame retardants, but the **material composition** determines the HS Code. If it’s fiberglass-based, even if flexible, it belongs to 7019.6X/7019.7X. The key is whether the base material is textile or glass fiber—**the defining trait is the primary material**, not added functions
