Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificates confirming alloy composition and mechanical properties meeting U.S
• Note (c) for concrete reinforcing bars
• Ensure bars have visible deformations (ribs/grooves) from hot-rolling; smooth bars may classify differently
• Verify compliance with Buy America provisions for infrastructure projects to avoid penalties
