ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) A screw made of stainless steel, measuring approximately 2 cm. The head of the screw comprises a recessed socket drive. The shank has a partial thread of a regular form. The pointed tip has a notch and it is not bifurcated. The article is designed for use in wood and wood panels.  ( *1 ) See image. 7318 12 10 Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7318 , 7318 12 and 7318 12 10 . Given its characteristics (partially threaded shank, notch at the end of the pointed tip and no bifurcation), the article is specifically designed to bite its way into wood. The article is therefore considered to be a wood screw falling under subheading 7318 12 . The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 7318 12 10 as a wood screw of stainless steel.
