Import Tips
• Label with precise section type (U vs. angle); U-sections have parallel flanges unlike L-angles
• Include heat treatment records if applicable, as quenched/tempered may affect duty but stay in heading if not further worked
• Avoid declaring as 'bars'—CBP distinguishes shapes by cross-section geometry
