Import Tips
• Provide mill test certificate verifying alloy composition (Cr, Ni content) and diameter measurement to confirm <1.0 mm classification
• Ensure wire is not coated or further worked (e.g
• no plating) to avoid reclassification under different subheadings
• Declare exact diameter and cross-section as round; common pitfall is mismeasurement leading to audits
