PROCLAMATION 7210-^ULY 22, 1999 113 STAT. 2121 times the thickness; or, if of a thickness of 4.75 mm or more, having a width exceeding 150 mm and measuring at least twice the thickness. The products described above may be rectangular, square, circular or other shape, and include products of either rectangular or non-rectangular cross-section where such crosssection is achieved subsequent to the rolling process (i.e. products which have been "worked after rolling") — for example, products which have been beveled or rounded at the edges. Specifically excluded from this scope are vacuum degassed, fully stabilized (commonly referred to as interstitial-free ('IF")) steels, high strength low alloy ('HSLA") steels, and motor lamination steels if in coils and of a width greater than 0.5 inches, regardless of thickness, and if less than 4.75 mm; if in straight lengths, 4.75 mm or more in thickness and of a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at least twice the thickness. IF steels are recognized as low carbon steels with micro-alloying lavala of elements such as titanium and/or niobium added to steUailize carbon and nitrogen elements. HS;LA. steels are recognized as steels with micro-alloying leivels of elements such as chromium, copper, niobium, titanium, vanadium, and molybdenum. Motor lamination steels contain micro-alloying levels of elements such as silicon and aluminum. Steel products to be excluded from the scope of this action, unless otherwise provided, regardless of definitions in the HTSUS, are products in which: (1) iron predominates, by weight, o^er each of the other contained elements; (2) the carbon content is 2 percent or less, by weight, and; (3) none of the elements listed below exceeds the quantity, by weight, respectively indicated: 1.60 percent of manganese, or 2.25 percent of silicon, or 1.00 percent of copper, or 0.50 percent of aluminum, or 1.25 percent of chromium, or ' 0.30 percent of cobalt, or 0.40 percent of lead, or 1.25 percent of nickel, or 0.30 percent of tungsten, or 0.10 percent of molybdenum, or 0.10 percent of niobium (also called columbium), or 0.15 percent of vanadium, or 0.15 percent of zirconium. ., All products that meet the written physical dejscription, and in which the chemistry quantities do not exceed any one of the noted element levels listed above, are excluded l°rom the scope of this action unless specifically included. The following products, by way of example, are included in the scope of this action: I. SAE grades (formerly also called AISI grades) eUsove 2300;
