Import Tips
• Specify exact OD/ID/wall thickness in commercial invoice to match 7306 tubing definitions vs drill pipe
• Use thread protectors on couplings during ocean freight to prevent galling/cross-threading claims
• For Canadian imports, align with CSA Z245.1 standards alongside API for smoother cross-border clearance
