HS Code 5909Textile hose piping and similar textile tubing; with or without lining, armour or accessories of other materials
1 six-digit code · Heading 9 of 11 in Chapter 59 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
HS code 5909 is where a flexible textile tube belongs, such as a fire hose. Read what it covers, what it leaves out, and how to trace the firms that trade it.
Heading 5909does not subdivide further in the WCO nomenclature: goods answering to “Textile hose piping and similar textile tubing; with or without lining, armour or accessories of other materials” classify at the single six-digit code 590900. The heading is number 9 of 11 in Chapter 59, Textile fabrics; impregnated, coated, covered or laminated; textile articles of a kind suitable for industrial use, which runs to 24 six-digit codes in all.

What HS code 5909 covers
The key idea is a tube made from textile material. A fire hose is a common example. Other flexible textile tubing for carrying liquids, air or other material fits the same idea.
The words "with or without" matter. A bare textile hose fits. So does a hose that has a lining, armour or accessories made of other materials. Adding a metal fitting or a rubber liner does not push the product out of the heading.
The heading sits in a chapter built for technical textiles and textile articles for industrial use. Some traders write it as HSN code 5909. It is the same heading, because HSN lists are built on the Harmonized System.
Classification path from section to code
The path is short. It starts at Section XI, moves to Chapter 59, then to heading 5909, and ends at 590900. On a customs form, that last number is the one you write for the goods.
The first six digits come from the WCO Harmonized System, so countries that use the system share them. After those six digits, a country may add its own digits for tariffs and statistics. These national lines can split the goods further, for example by the fibre used. We do not list them here.
Duty and tax rates depend on the country and on those extra digits. We do not show rates on this page. Check your own customs tariff, or test your product in the HS code classifier.
What does 5909 not include?
Ask one simple question: is the item a tube? If yes, this heading is the likely home. If not, a nearby heading may fit better.
Chapter notes can change an answer, so read them before you decide. These are the closest headings to check:
- Belts that drive machines or move goods: look at 5910.
- Articles named in note 7 to the chapter: look at 5911.
- Flat cloth coated or laminated with plastics: look at 5903.
- Rubberised cloth: look at 5906.
- Wicks for lamps, stoves and candles, and gas mantles: look at 5908.
