Import Tips

• Certify block density >1.75 g/cm³ and purity >99% carbon; document prevents reclassification as lower-grade carbon

• Provide dimensional tolerances and machining allowance specs; CBP may require proof of semi-manufactured status

• Avoid combining with finished electrodes in same shipment to prevent set classification under 8545
