Whereas such spray heads contain no mechanical device and are sealed by a simple capsule which falls away when the fusible metal strut which holds it in place melts ; whereas therefore such spray heads do not in themselves constitute mechanical appliances for projecting, dispersing or spraying liquids or powders falling within heading No 84.21 and cannot be considered as parts or spare parts of such appliances ; whereas they do not fall within heading No 84.61 either, which covers taps, cocks, valves and similar appliances, for pipes, boiler shells, tanks, vats and the like ; whereas, as appears from the relevant Explanatory Note to the Brussels Nomenclature, only mechanically operated appliances fall within that heading ; whereas they do not constitute machinery and mechanical appliances within heading No 84.59, in accordance with the scope of that heading as specified in the Explanatory Notes to the Brussels Nomenclature;
Whereas, therefore, spray heads must be classified according to the material of which they are made ; whereas, since they are made of brass, they fall within heading No 74.19;
