Import Tips

Provide chemical composition analysis proving nonalloy steel (carbon ≤0.45%, no significant alloying elements)

Label shipments clearly with API grade, size, and 'drill pipe' designation to prevent misclassification as casing

Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain steel pipe origins; check USTR lists before importing
