Import Tips
• Distinguish from Chapter 72 stainless strip/flat products; round bars stay in 7228 despite stainless composition
• No surface treatments allowed; phosphatizing or coating (Chapter note on 'further worked') requires 7228.60
• Provide spectrometry report for 17% Cr content to confirm not high-strength per note (a)
