A product in the form of a steel disc, cut from a flat hot-rolled plate, with a diameter of approximately 187 cm and a thickness of approximately 1,5 cm, with a stamped small hole and larger oval-shaped hole.

After presentation, it is to be further processed (milling and drilling of additional holes, mounting of a steel rim and a surface treatment and coating) prior to being used.

It is to be used together with a similar disc of a thickness of approximately 2,5 cm to connect one blade to the blade bearing in the nacelle of a so-called ‘wind turbine’ (a wind engine integrated with a generator).

Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7326 , 7326 90 and 7326 90 98 .

Classification under heading 7308 as a part of a structure or under Section XVI as a part of a machine is excluded because, as presented, the product cannot be identified as a ‘part’ given that it requires further processing.

It is therefore to be classified according to its constituent material under CN code 7326 90 98 as other articles of steel.
