Subpart F headnotes: 1. This subpart covers tin, its alloys, and their socalled basic shapes and forms, and also includes tin waste and scrap. 2. Alloys of tin: For the purposes of the tariff schedules, alloys of tin are metals in which the tin content is, by weight, less than 99.0 percent, but not less than any other metallic element. In the absence of context which requires otherwise, the term "tin", wherever used in the tariff schedules, includes alloys of tin. 3. For the purposes of this subpart, the following terms have the meanings indicated: (a) Plates, sheets, and strips: Products of solid rectangular cross section, in coils or cut to length, whether or not corrugated or crimped. Plates are 0.25 inch or more in thickness and over 12 inches in width; sheets and strips are under 0.25 inch but not under 0.006 inch in thickness. (b) Wire: A nontubular product of any cross-sectional configuration under 0.25 inch in maximum cross-sectional dimension, in coils. (c) Bars, rods, angles, shapes, and sections: Products which do not conform completely to the respective definitions set forth in this headnote for plates, sheets, strips, or wire and do not include any tubular products. 238 A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A AA 624.52 624.54 over 1.8 percent of any one or more of the metals See footnotes at end of table.
