Import Tips
• Provide fire rating certifications (e.g
• ASTM E84) to validate insulation and coating claims
• Declare if disks fit 'solid cylinders including disks' precisely to match the tariff description
• Monitor coating thickness; functional coatings stay in 4504, decorative may shift to Chapter 32 paints
