Import Tips
• Check for Section 232 tariffs on steel; provide country-of-melt documentation as silico-manganese often triggers scrutiny
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring as stainless—ensure alloy cert confirms non-stainless composition
• Ship in standard coil weights (under 30 tons) to match common entry practices and reduce handling risks
