Import Tips
• Verify reinforcement is solely metal (e.g
• steel braid/wire) via material test reports to confirm classification
• Include fitting specifications and pressure ratings in commercial invoice to support 'with fittings' claim
• Check for REACH compliance if destined for EU markets, as rubber compounds may contain restricted substances
