This chapter covers articles of iron or steel, including cast iron, but excludes products specifically covered in Chapters 72 (iron and steel in primary and semi-finished forms) or in Section XVI (machinery and mechanical appliances). Articles of iron or steel which are clearly identifiable as parts of specific machines or apparatus are classified with those machines in Chapters 84-85 rather than in this chapter. The chapter includes a wide range of manufactured products such as tubes, pipes, structures, containers, wire products, chains, screws, bolts, needles, springs, stoves, radiators, and other articles for domestic, industrial or construction use.

In Chapters 73 to 76 and 78 to 82, references to parts of goods do not include references to parts of general use as defined above. 3. Throughout the Nomenclature, the expression 'base metals' means: iron and steel, copper, nickel, aluminium, lead, zinc, tin, tungsten (wolfram), molybdenum, tantalum, magnesium, cobalt, bismuth, cadmium, titanium, zirconium, antimony, manganese, beryllium, chromium, germanium, vanadium, gallium, hafnium (celtium), indium, niobium (columbium), rhenium and thallium. 4. Throughout the Nomenclature, the term 'cermets' means products containing a microscopic heterogeneous combination of a metallic component and a ceramic component, including sintered metal carbides. 5. Classification of alloys (other than ferro-alloys and master alloys as defined in Chapters 72 and 74): alloys of base metals with each other are to be classified as alloys of the metal which predominates by weight over each of the other metals. Alloys of base metals not elsewhere specified or included are to be classified as articles of the metal predominating by weight.
