CLASSIFICATION OF HOLLOW EXTRUDED SHAPES
Hollow extruded shapes are classified as follows:
(a) | Class A |
| | A hollow extruded shape having a single void with no internal or external protrusions, and which is greater than 15 mm in diameter or 177 mm≤ in area. The void may be round, square or rectangular, provided that the width/depth ratio is less than 5:1. It has uniform wall thickness except that a non- uniform wall is allowed at corners having internal or external radii up to 7.5 mm. |
| | |
| (b) | Class B |
| | A single void hollow extruded shape other than a Class A shape, or a solid shape incorporating a single semi-hollow area classified as a hollow. |
| | |
| (c) | Class C |
| | A hollow extruded shape having two or more fully enclosed voids. |
| | |
| (d) | Class D |
| | Any hollow shape that incorporates a semi-hollow area, or any solid shape that incorporates multiple semi-hollow areas that are classified as hollows. |

| (e) | Yacht mast extrusion |
