Import Tips
• Verify chemical composition to confirm nonalloy steel status (max 0.3% combined C+Mn+Si etc.) via mill test certificate
• Measure exact thickness and width at entry to ensure >10mm and ≥600mm; slight variations may shift classification
• Avoid claims for rust/discoloration allowances per Chapter 72 notes; inspect upon arrival
