Glass envelopes (including bulbs and tubes), open and glass parts thereof, without fittings, for electric lamps and light sources, cathode-ray tubes or the like
In plain English
This category includes open glass envelopes, such as bulbs and tubes, along with their glass parts, all of which lack fittings. These items are intended for use in electric lamps, light sources, or cathode-ray tubes. The classification separates them based on their specific application, distinguishing between those for electric lighting, those for cathode-ray tubes, and any other uses not covered by the first two groups.
