Import Tips
• Include tensile strength test results (typically 1200-1500 MPa for spring applications) in entry docs
• Confirm no alloying elements exceed nonalloy thresholds per Chapter 72 note definitions
• Watch for diameter variation; inconsistent sizing risks reclassification to adjacent mm ranges
