Import Tips
• Submit fiber composition analysis proving C-glass (silica-based) meets fused silica/glass definition in Chapter Note
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'felt'—specify mechanical bonding to stay in 7019 vs. 5602 textile felts
• For sets with resins, declare components separately to prevent classification as composite articles elsewhere
