Import Tips
• Provide binding agent composition to distinguish from pure worked mica and support agglomerated classification
• Ensure plates are not assembled into complete heaters to prevent reclassification under Chapter 85
• Label thermal ratings clearly; high-heat specs reinforce industrial use under this heading
