component. "Cermets" includes sintered metal carbides (metal carbides sintered with a metal).
 5.‑ Classification of alloys (other than ferro‑alloys and master alloys as defined in Chapters 72 and 74):
 (a) An alloy of base metals is to be classified as an alloy of the metal which predominates by weight over each of the other metals;
 (b) An alloy composed of base metals of this Section and of elements not falling within this Section is to be treated as an alloy of base metals of this Section if the total weight of such metals equals or exceeds the total weight of the other elements present;
 (c) In this Section "alloys" includes sintered mixtures of metal powders, heterogeneous intimate mixtures obtained by melting (other than cermets) and intermetallic compounds.
 6.‑ Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference in this Schedule to a base metal includes a reference to alloys which, by virtue of Note 5 above, are to be classified as alloys of that metal.
 7.‑ Classification of composite articles:
Except where the headings otherwise require, articles of base metal (including articles of mixed materials treated as articles of base metal under the Interpretation Rules) containing two or more base metals are to be treated as articles of the base metal predominating by weight over each of the other metals. For this purpose:
 (a) Iron and steel, or different kinds of iron or steel, are regarded as one and the same metal;
 (b) An alloy is regarded as being entirely composed of that metal as an alloy of which, by virtue of Note 5, it is classified; and
 (c) A cermet of 8113.00.00 is regarded as a single base metal.
 8.‑ In this Section, the following have the meanings hereby assigned to them:
 (a) Waste and scrap
 (i) All metal waste and scrap; and
 (ii) Metal goods definitely not usable as such because of breakage, cutting‑up, wear or other reasons.
 (b) Powders
  Products of which 90% or more by weight passes through a sieve having a mesh aperture of 1 mm.
 9.‑ For the purposes of Chapters 74 to 76 and 78 to 81, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:
 (a) Bars and rods
  Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a uniform solid cross‑section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross‑section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have
