6815 13 000 0 — Articles of stone or of other mineral substances (including carbon fibres, articles of carbon fibres and articles of peat), not elsewhere specified or included: carbon fibres; articles of carbon fibres for non-electrical uses; other articles of graphite or other carbon for non-electrical uses: other articles of carbon fibres

6815 Articles of stone or other mineral substances (including carbon fibres, carbon fibres and peat products) not elsewhere specified or included: 6815 10 articles of graphite sludge and other carbonaceous materials not used in electrical engineering 6815 20 articles of peat - other articles: 6815 91 - - containing magnesite, dolomite or chromite 6815 99 - other articles

This heading covers articles of stone or other mineral substances not described in the preceding headings of this Chapter and not included in the other headings of the Nomenclature; thus it does not include, for example, ceramic articles of Chapter 69. This heading covers, inter alia: (1) Articles not used in electrical engineering made of natural or artificial graphite (including graphite rods for nuclear reactors) or other carbonaceous materials

materials, for example: filters; discs; bearings; pipes and pulleys; worked briquettes and tiles; moulds for making small articles of complex shape (e.g., coins, medals, tin soldiers for collections). (2) Carbon fibres and articles thereof. Carbon fibres are usually produced by carbonising fibres of organic polymers. These articles are used, for example, for reinforcement. (3) Articles of peat (e.g., sheets, cylinder shells, plant-growing pots). However, textile articles of peat fibres are excluded from this heading (Section XI). (4) Unfired bricks of dolomite agglomerated with tar. (5) Bricks and other shapes (in particular of magnesite or chrome-magnesite), chemically bonded but not yet fired. The same articles, when fired, are excluded from this heading (heading 6902 or 6903). (6) Unfired tanks of silica or alumina (e.g., for melting glass). (7) Touchstones for testing precious metal; they may be natural stones (e.g., lydite, a hard fine-grained dark stone resistant to acids). (8) Blocks and slabs for paving roads, obtained by moulding molten slag without the use of binders; however, the heading excludes articles with heat-insulating properties of heading 6806. (9) Filtering tubes of finely ground and agglomerated quartz or flint gravel and pebbles. (10) Blocks, slabs, sheets and other articles of fused basalt; because of their high resistance to wear they are used as linings for pipelines, belts of belt conveyors, coke ovens, coal and ore chutes, and troughs in the extraction of gravel, stone, etc. The heading also excludes: (a) blocks, plates and similar semi-manufactures of artificial graphite or other forms of carbon, used mainly in the manufacture of electric brushes (heading 3801) (see the corresponding Explanatory Note); (b) refractory articles fired like ceramics, based on carbonaceous materials (graphite, coke, etc.) and coal tar or clay (heading 6902 or 6903, as the case may be); (c) carbon electrodes, carbon brushes, lamp carbons and battery carbons and other parts or articles for electrical purposes (heading 8545).

1. For the purposes of subheadings 6815 91 000 2 and 6815 99 000 2, the term “chemical bundle” means an inorganic component of a refractory material (solution of phosphates, chlorides, sulfates, alkaline silicates or other salts) with which the other components of a refractory material at a temperature below 800 °C give strength to the article during manufacture.
