Import Tips
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as 'parts' if blanks are generic; they remain under 7209 unless specific to machinery
• Ensure entry documents note 'not further worked' status; any phosphatizing moves to 7211
• Monitor for high-strength steel specs; if yield point exceeds note (a) limits, may require different statistical suffix
