| A cylindrical hollow product of aluminium, tapered at one end (nipples) and equipped with a lever lock ring.The product is presented as a coupling for hoses.note See image. | 76090000 | Classification is determined by general rule 1 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN code 76090000.Heading 7609 covers couplings for connecting the bores of two tubes (see also the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes to heading 7609 and heading 7307). As hoses are considered a kind of tube, couplings for hoses also fall under the scope of this heading.As the product is covered by one of the headings of Chapter 76 its classification under heading 7616 as other articles of aluminium is excluded.The product is therefore to be classified under CN code 76090000 as aluminium tube or pipe fittings. |
