Import Tips

Measure diameter precisely - even slight variance over 1.0mm shifts to different subheading with higher duties

Include tensile strength test results showing high-carbon properties; CBP often requests for spring wire

Avoid declaring as 'spring steel' without chemical analysis - must prove nonalloy status
