Import Tips
• Annealing alone doesn't count as further working; document heat treatment doesn't include polishing/oxidation
• Confirm ferritic structure via test certs; austenitic grades like 304 have different properties/applications
• Check for universal mill plate specs (note b)—if met, may affect statistical reporting
