Import Tips
• Verify wire diameter and tensile strength via mill test certificates to confirm nonalloy composition and avoid misclassification as high-strength steel
• Provide documentation proving no plating or coating; common pitfall is residual oils mistaken for coatings
• Declare exact gauge and use; binding wire often scrutinized for rebar rod confusion under note (c)
