Import Tips
• Provide chemical analysis certificate distinguishing from tool steel (e.g
• chromium <10.5% without specified carbon levels)
• Declare precise diameter measurement method (e.g
• micrometer) to match statistical reporting for 1.0-1.5 mm range
• Watch for rust/discoloration; no duty allowance per Chapter 72 note (h)—ensure proper packaging
