Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis certificates proving molybdenum content for 316L classification and stainless steel status
• Calculate and document exact cross-sectional area; areas approaching 232 cm² risk scrutiny
• Avoid clad or coated billets to prevent reclassification under further worked provisions
