Import Tips
• Specify low-temperature impact testing (e.g
• -196°C Charpy) to validate LNG service and tariff positioning
• For EPC projects, ensure pipe matches P&ID specifications to avoid project delays from reclassification
• Check Section 232 tariffs on steel derivatives; stainless line pipe often qualifies for exclusions
