Import Tips

• Provide porosity and absorption test results per ASTM C373 to confirm ceramic body characteristics

• Label clearly as 'diatomaceous earth ceramic' to differentiate from plastic filter media

• Watch for end-use declarations; industrial filters stay in 6901 but consumer pool toys go to Chapter 95
