Import Tips
• Submit chemical analysis reports verifying elements like nickel (0.4-0.7%), chromium (0.4-0.7%) to confirm alloy status and avoid plain steel headings
• Check for minimum yield strength if claiming high-strength steel concessions; document hot-rolling process to prevent cold-rolled mix-up
