1. In this chapter, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

1. (a) Alloy pig iron

   Pig iron containing, by weight, one or more of the following elements in the specified proportions:

   • more than 0,2 % of chromium,

   • more than 0,3 % of copper,

   • more than 0,3 % of nickel,

   • more than 0,1 % of any of the following elements: aluminium, molybdenum, titanium, tungsten (wolfram), vanadium.

2. (b) Non-alloy free-cutting steel

   Non-alloy steel containing, by weight, one or more of the following elements in the specified proportions:

   • 0,08 % or more of sulphur,

   • 0,1 % or more of lead,

   • more than 0,05 % of selenium,

   • more than 0,01 % of tellurium,

   • more than 0,05 % of bismuth.

3. (c) Silicon-electrical steel

   Alloy steels containing by weight at least 0,6 % but not more than 6 % of silicon and not more than 0,08 % of carbon. They may also contain by weight not more than 1 % of aluminium but no other element in a proportion that would give the steel the characteristics of another alloy steel.

4. (d) High-speed steel

   Alloy steels containing, with or without other elements, at least two of the three elements molybdenum, tungsten and vanadium with a combined content by weight of 7 % or more, 0,6 % or more of carbon and 3 to 6 % of chromium.

5. (e) Silico-manganese steel

   Alloy steels containing by weight:

   • not more than 0,7 % of carbon,

   • 0,5 % or more but not more than 1,9 % of manganese, and

   • 0,6 % or more but not more than 2,3 % of silicon, but no other element in a proportion that would give the steel the characteristics of another alloy steel.

2. For the classification of ferro-alloys in the subheadings of heading 7202, the following rule should be observed:

A ferro-alloy is considered as binary and classified under the relevant subheading (if it exists) if only one of the alloy elements exceeds the minimum percentage laid down in note 1(c) to this chapter; by analogy, it is considered respectively as ternary or quaternary if two or three alloy elements exceed the minimum percentage.

For the application of this rule, the unspecified ‘other elements’ referred to in note 1(c) to this chapter must each exceed 10 % by weight.
