Import Tips
• Provide detailed chemical composition and mechanical test certificates proving nonalloy high-strength status
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring thickness; must match yield point thresholds exactly for this code
• Include plating process documentation (hot-dip vs electrolytic) as CBP may inspect coating uniformity
