Import Tips

Provide mill test certificate confirming ball-bearing steel composition per US Note (h) (e.g

0.95-1.13% C, 1.25-1.65% Cr) at time of entry

Verify product meets 'not further worked than cold-rolled' criteria - no polishing, coating, or cladding allowed under this subheading

Ensure accurate width measurement (>600mm) and distinguish from hot-rolled products to avoid misclassification
