Chapter notes
- Chapter 72 - NOTES
1.- In this Chapter and, in the case of Notes (d), (e) and
(f) throughout this Schedule, the following expressions
have the meanings hereby assigned to them :
(a) Pig iron
Iron-carbon alloys not usefully malleable, containing
more than 2% by weight of carbon and which may contain by
weight one or more other elements within the following
limits :
- not more than 10 % of chromium
- not more than 6% of manganese
- not more than 3% of phosphorus
- not more than 8% of silicon
- a total of not more than 10% of other elements.
(b) Spiegeleisen
Iron-carbon alloys containing by weight more than 6 %
but not more than 30 % of manganese and otherwise
conforming to the specification at (a) above.
(c) Ferro-alloys
Alloys in pigs, blocks, lumps or similar primary forms,
in forms obtained by continuous casting and also in
granular or powder forms, whether or not agglomerated,
commonly used as an additive in the manufacture of other
alloys or as de-oxidants, de-sulphurising agents or for
similar uses in ferrous metallurgy and generally not
usefully malleable, containing by weight 4 % or more of
the element iron and one or more of the following :
- more than 10 % chromium
- more than 30 % of manganese
- more than 3 % of phosphorus
- more than 8 % of silicon
- a total of more than 10% of other elements, excluding
carbon, subject to a maximum content of 10% in the case of
copper.
(d) Steel
Ferrous materials other than those of heading No. 72.03
which (with the exception of certain types produced in the
form of castings) are usefully malleable and which contain
by weight 2% or less of carbon. However, chromium steels
may contain higher proportion of carbon.
(e) Stainless steel
Alloy steels containing, by weight, 1.2 % or less of
carbon and 10.5 % or more of chromium, with or without
other elements.
(f) Other alloy steel
Steels not complying with the definition of stainless
steel and containing by weight one or more of the
following elements in the proportion shown :
- 0.3 % more of aluminium
- 0.0008 % or more of boron
- 0.3 % or more of chromium
- 0.3 % or more of cobalt
- 0.4 % or more of copper
- 0.4 % or more of lead
- 1.65 % or more of manganese
- 0.08 % or more of molybdenum
- 0.3 % or more of nickel
- 0.06 % or more of niobium
- 0.6 % or more of silicon
- 0.05 % or more of titanium
- 0.3 % or more of tungsten (wolfram)
- 0.1 % or more of vanadium
- 0.05 % or more of zirconium
- 0.1 % or more of other elements (except sulphur,
phosphorus, carbon and nitrogen), taken separately.
(g) Remelting scrap ingots or iron or steel
Products roughly cast in the form of ingots without
feeder-heads or hot tops, or of pigs, having obvious
surface faults and not complying with the chemical
composition of pig iron, spiegeleisen or ferro-alloys.
(h) Granules
Products of which less than 90% by weight passes through
a sieve with mesh aperture of 1mm and of which 90% or more
by weight passes through a sieve with a mesh aperture of
5mm.
(ij) Semi-finished products
Continuous cast products of solid section, whether or
not subjected to primary hot-rolling; and
Other products of solid section, which have not been
further worked than subjected to primary hot-rolling or
roughly shaped by forging, including blanks for angles,
shapes or sections.
These products are not presented in coils.
(k) Flat-rolled products
Rolled products of solid rectangular (other than square)
cross-section, which do not conform to the definition at
(ij) above in the form of :
- coils of successively superimposed layers, or
etc...
