Import Tips
• Confirm ferritic stainless composition (<10.5% Cr, magnetic) via test cert to distinguish from austenitic grades
• Watch for coiling; declare as 'in coils' if applicable, though width criteria still governs classification
• Document hot-rolled condition; any annealing/polishing constitutes 'further worked' per chapter note, shifting to 7222
