Import Tips
• Confirm the bloom is not further worked than primary hot-rolling or roughly shaped by forging to stay under this tariff item
• Provide a certificate of analysis showing 316L composition (low carbon, Cr, Ni, Mo) for CBSA
• Keep records of the cross-section dimensions to distinguish from flat-rolled products
