Import Tips
• Spring temper from cold drawing permitted; avoid heat treatment claims that suggest alloy spring steel
• Tensile strength tests often requested; maintain records showing compliance with low carbon specs
• Prevent cross-contamination with plated wire during shipping to maintain 'not plated' status
