Import Tips
• Certify tool steel composition meets Chapter 72 note (e) criteria (e.g
• >1.2% C and >10.5% Cr) with mill test reports to avoid reclassification
• Ensure documentation proves cold-finished state only, no further working like polishing or coating per chapter note
• Watch for high-speed steel misclassification; confirm absence of tungsten/molybdenum exceeding tool steel limits
