Import Tips
• Include supplier specs showing nylon as the outer coating; multi-layer coatings must have plastics as the final layer
• Verify wire diameter <6mm to stay in 7217; larger bars/rods go to 7214/7215
• Document end-use if questioned, but classification is based on objective characteristics per HTS notes
