  "text": "The image is only for information.\nDescription of the goods\nClassification(CN code)\nReasons\n(1)\n(2)\n(3)\nA hollow, non-threaded cylindrical article of steel, other than stainless steel, plated with zinc (so-called \"express nail\"). It has a complete opening along one side. One of the ends is slightly curved outwards. The other end has a sharp, cutting edge.\nThe article is used as a fastener, by hammering it into a drilled hole for, for example, quick installations of battens onto concrete walls. The sharpened end provides for greater ease in driving it in. Its hollow construction, the opening along one side and the outwardly curved end provide for increased holding power when it is hammered in entirely.\nSee image\n7317 00 90\nClassification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7317 00 and 7317 00 90.\nClassification under heading 7318 is excluded as the design of the article is not similar to that of any of the articles mentioned under that heading.\nClassification under heading 7326 is excluded as the article cannot be regarded as a wall plug of steel as, due to its construction, it is not designed to allow the tight fitting of screws into masonry walls.\nThe article is similar to, and functions in the same way as, a nail of heading 7317. Hammering it in entirely is enough to ensure that the object to be fastened, for example, a batten, remains tightly secured.\nThe article is therefore to be classified under CN code 7317 00 90 as other articles of steel, similar to a nail.",
