Import Tips
• Verify API 5CT certification and provide mill test certificates (MTC) showing chemical composition meets nonalloy steel specs
• Confirm outside diameter measurement exceeds 406.4mm; use caliper verification documentation to avoid reclassification
• Include end-user declaration proving oil/gas drilling use to prevent misclassification as general pipe
