Import Tips
• Include hydrostatic test reports proving 27.6 MPa burst pressure to avoid reclassification
• Declare exact polymer content; copolymers must meet 95% predominance rule from subheading notes
• Check for fittings; unattached hoses stay here, but attached may qualify for special rates per US note
