- Chapter 75 - NOTES
1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the
meanings hereby assigned to them:
(a) Bars and rods
Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles, or regular convex polygons (incl
uding "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of
which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two
sides being straight, of equal length and parallel).
Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular
or polygonal cross-section may have a rectangular
(including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds
one-tenth of the width. The expression also covers cast
or sintered products, of the same forms and dimensions,
which have been subsequently worked after production
(otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling),
provided that they have not thereby assumed the character
of articles or products of other headings.
(b) Profiles
Rolled, extruded, drawn, forged or formed products, coiled or not, of a uniform cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform to any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip, foil, tubes or pipes. the expre
ssion also covers cast or sintered products, of the same
forms, which have been subsequently worked after
production (otherwise than by simple trimming or
de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed
the character of articles or products of other headings.
(c) Wire
Rolled, extruded or drawn products, in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flatte
ned circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two
opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being
straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a
rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal
cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole
length. The thickness of such products which have a
rectangular (including "modified rectangular")
cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width.
(d) Plates, sheets, strip and foil
Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products of heading No. 75.02), coiled or not, of solid rectangular (other than square) cross-section with or without rounded corners (including "modified rectangles" of which two opposite sides
are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel) of a uniform thickness which are :
- of rectangular (including square) shape with a thickness not exceeding one-tenth of the width,
- of a shape other than rectangular or square, of any
size, provided that they do not assume the character of
articles or products of other headings.
Heading no. 75.06 applies, inter alia, to plates, sheets, strip and foil with patterns (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers, tears, button, lozenges) and to such products which have been perforated, corrugated, polished or coated, provided t
