DEFINITION

Classification: 428/596

(under subclass 544) Subject matter wherein the stock-material* or a component* thereof has one or more discrete through openings, with the peripheral wall or walls of each opening defined by either a line or closed loop passing through the thickness of the material or component in a undirectional rectilinear path.
