Import Tips
• Document the maximum operating temperature and alumina content to support the classification as ceramic insulators
• If the tubes are imported with heating elements, they may be classified as parts of furnaces, so ensure the invoice clearly separates the components
• Verify that the tubes are not considered parts of machines excluded by Section Note 1
