ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN-code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) An article consisting of a threaded shank with a metric thread made of zinc plated steel and a head made of plastics. The threaded shank is manufactured by rolling and is of a length of 23 mm with a diameter of 6 mm. The round head has a diameter of 14,5 mm and has no slot or recess for tools. The article is presented to be used as a ‘stand/foot’ for items of furniture (it can however also be used with other items that are to be placed on the floor) and serves to adjust the height of the item as required by screwing the threaded part into the item. See image  ( *1 ) . 7318 15 90 Classification is determined by general rules 1, 3(b) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7318 , 7318 15 and 7318 15 90 . The article is a composite good consisting of two materials. The component that gives the article its essential character is the threaded shank made of zinc plated steel which serves to adjust the height of the items by screwing. Classification under heading 8302 as base metal mountings, fittings and similar articles suitable for furniture is excluded, as the intended use of the article is not inherent to its objective characteristics and as it can also be used with goods other than furniture. The article has the objective characteristics of a screw of heading 7318 . It is therefore to be classified under CN code 7318 15 90 as other screws. ( *1 )   The image is purely for information.
