Import Tips
• Submit spectrometry reports proving carbon 0.25-2.0% range and absence of alloy elements like Cr>0.3% or Mo
• Avoid packaging that suggests further working; bulk shipment confirms semifinished status
• Check for minimum cross-section size; very thin sections may classify as flat-rolled products
