Import Tips
• Ensure the scrap is free of sand or refractory materials from the casting process
• Provide a certificate of analysis confirming the copper-zinc composition and copper content below 94%
• Consider whether the scrap qualifies as 'waste and scrap' under section note 8, as defective castings may be classified differently if usable
