BASIC METALS AND PRODUCTS OF BASIC METAL
Group 80
Tin and products of tin
Note:
1. The terms used in this group have the following meaning:
а) Bars - rolled, pressed, drawn or forged products, not wound into coils and with stable cross section all
along the whole length in the form of circles, ellipses, rectangles (including squares), equiangular triangles or
well-formed convex polygon (including "flattened circles" and "altered rectangles", in which two opposite sides
are convex bows, while the other two are straight, equal in length and parallel to each other). The products with
rectangular (including square), triangular or multangular cross section may have angles, rounded all along the
length of the product. The thickness of such products, with rectangular (including "altered rectangular") cross
section, exceeds 0,1 of their width. Such term is also applied to cast or sintered products of the same forms and
sizes, treated after production (in addition to cutting of edges and removal of scale), provided that during such
treatment they have not acquired the features specific to the products of other commodity items.
b) Shapes - rolled, extruded, drawn, forged or formed products, wound or not wound into coils and with
continuous cross section and falling under the definition of bars, wire, plates, sheets, bands or tape, foil, piping
or tubing. This term is also referred to cast or sintered products of the same form, treated after production (apart
from cutting of edges and removal of scale), provided that during such treatment they have not acquired the
features specific to the products of other commodity items.
c) Wire - rolled, extruded or drawn products in coils and with continuous all along the length cross section
in the form of circles, ellipses, rectangles (including squares), equiangular triangles or well-formed convex
polygons ((including "flattened circles" and "altered rectangles", in which two opposite sides are convex bows,
while the other two are straight, equal in length and parallel to each other).
The products with rectangular (including square), triangular or multangular cross section may have angles,
rounded all along the length of the product. The thickness of such products, with rectangular (including "altered
rectangular") cross section, exceeds 0,1 of their width.
d) Plates, sheets, bands or tape and foil – flat products (except for not treated products, included in
commodity item 8001), wound or not wound in coils and with continuous rectangular (except for square) cross
section, with rounded or not rounded angles (including "altered rectangles", in which two opposite sides are
convex bows, while the other two are straight, equal in length and parallel to each other), with constant
thickness, with:
- rectangular (including square) form with thickness, not exceeding 0,1 of width;
- form, different from rectangular or square, of any size provided, that they have not acquired specific
features for the products included in other commodity items.
Commodity items 8004 and 8005 include, inter alia, plates, sheets, bands or tape and foil, with uneven
surface (e.g., furrows, bulges, squares, ellipses), as well as products, perforated, corrugated, polished or with
coating, provided, that they have not acquired specific features for the products included in other commodity it.
e) Pipes and tubes – hollow products, wound or not wound in coils and with constant cross section only
with one closed cavity along the whole length of product in the form of circles, ellipses, rectangles (including
squares), equiangular triangles or well-formed polygons and with constant thickness of wall. The products with
the cross section in the form of rectangle (including square), equiangular triangle or well-formed polygon with
rounded angles all along the length are top be referred to pipes and tubes, provided that their inner and outer
cross sections are concentric and have the same form and orientation. Pipes and tubes, which have the above
described cross sections, may be polished, may have coating, be bended, threaded, drilled, necked down,
expanded, tapered or have flanges, cup type seal or rings on their edges.
Note to sub-items:
1) the terms used in the group means the following:
а) Non alloy tin is metal, containing not less than 99 weight fr.% of tin, provided that content of bismuth or
copper does not exceed the limits set in the table below:

b) Tin alloys, are metal alloys in which tin content in weight exceeds content in weight of any other
element, provided that:
i) total content of other elements is more than 1 fr.%; or
ii) content in weight of bismuth or copper is equal to or exceeds the limit content in weight specified in the
Table.
