Import Tips

Include thermal conductivity test results (<0.5 W/mK typical) to substantiate refractory insulation claims

Ensure packing lists specify 'fired clay refractory' to avoid scrutiny as unfinished goods

Check for chrome content; if >10%, may require additional hazardous material declarations
