Import Tips
• ASTM A572 Gr.50 typically qualifies but confirm exact yield meets US note (a); test reports essential
• Ensure no patterns in relief or special rolling that could reclassify as universal mill plate
• Bulk packaging ok, but avoid retail consumer packaging which might trigger different considerations
