Classification is determined by general rules 1, 3(b) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7318 , 7318 15 and 7318 15 90 . The article is a composite good consisting of two materials. The component that gives the article its essential character is the threaded shank made of zinc plated steel which serves to adjust the height of the items by screwing. Classification under heading 8302 as base metal mountings, fittings and similar articles suitable for furniture is excluded, as the intended use of the article is not inherent to its objective characteristics and as it can also be used with goods other than furniture. The article has the objective characteristics of a screw of heading 7318 . It is therefore to be classified under CN code 7318 15 90 as other screws. Documented CN 2026 code: 73181595, 7318. Commission 2026 transposition note: 7318 15 95 Modification of structure of heading 7318.

Classification is determined by General Rules 1, 2(a) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7318, 7318 15 and 7318 15 89. As the article is not ready for direct use, has the approximate shape of the finished article and can only be used for completion into a finished article of heading 7318, it is considered to be an unfinished article within the meaning of General Interpretative Rule (GIR) 2(a), being a blank (see also the HS Explanatory Notes to GIR 2(a), point (II) and to heading 7318, part (A), fifth paragraph). Given its objective characteristics, such as its shape, hexagon head and tensile strength, it is considered to be an unfinished article of CN code 7318 15 89. The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 7318 15 89. Documented CN 2026 code: 73181588, 7318. Commission 2026 transposition note: 7318 15 88 Modification of structure of heading 7318.
