Import Tips
• Verify 16-18% chromium content typical of 430 grade; low nickel distinguishes from austenitics
• Scale residue confirms 'not pickled'; retain production records for potential CBP verification
• Label coils clearly with grade, thickness, and dimensions; incomplete marking leads to exam holds
